At this year’s TGS, the game emerged once again- though it now has a new name. Now called Arise of the Awakener, the action RPG’s new trailer continues to look promising, showcasing various locations and enemies. The primary focus of the trailer is on showing off the game’s combat across a number of different playable classes, from powerful magical attacks to more close range melee strikes with different weapons.

The trailer also shows glimpses of customization mechanics, bombastic battles between flying airships, dragon riding gameplay, and more. There’s quite a bit to unpack here, so make sure to check out the trailer below.

The Awakener: Risen will launch for PS5, PS4, and PC sometime in 2023.

Arise of Awakener offers three playable characters (though they sound more like classes – Warrior, Archer and Mage. Along with fast-paced hack and slash combat against all kinds of foes, players can also ride on dragons. As many have pointed out, there’s a kind of Dragon’s Dogma vibe with how aggressive the combat is, whether you’re a Mage or Warrior.

There are towns to explore to explore, chests to loot, resources to collect (and mine) and much more. And if riding on a dragon, flying over the landscape isn’t your thing, then you can still engage in mounted combat on horseback. More details are definitely needed though so stay tuned in the coming days.

Imagine Factorio but on an inter-planetary scale – that’s Youthcat Studio’s Dyson Sphere Program in a nutshell. The sandbox title recently launched in Steam Early Access and has already sold over 200,000 copies in four days. It currently has an “Overwhelmingly Positive” user review score on Steam and is also number one on Steam’s Top Sellers list.

The story sees the COSMO agency launching Icarus mechs to explore the universe and build a Dyson Sphere. This megastructure will harness the power of a star but requires setting up production lines on numerous planets, utilizing their resources and automating everything. The universe is procedurally generated with one playthrough estimated at 50 to 100 hours in its current stage.

Early access is currently planned to last for a year though the development team says this isn’t “written in stone.” “We will be open to our players’ feedback and ideas from the beginning, so that period can be expanded to meet their expectations until the game is ready for its full release.” Upcoming content includes new planet types, exploration events (like a black hole), designing one’s own mechs, monsters, additional construction types and much more. There will also be cutscenes and additional music tracks and sounds.

Stay tuned for more details on the Dyson Sphere Program in the coming months.
