Retro-inspired RPG Atlas Wept is coming to Steam next month.

Announced today, the game, which is developed by Kbojisoft, will arrive on January 17. The game can be wishlisted on Steam right now here. A demo is also available to check out.

A synopsis for the game reads:

On a distant planet enshrouded in peculiar mysteries, two groups of wayward children embark on dangerous journeys. Guide Dezi and Charlie closer to the origin of a malevolent personality-erasing force, and learn more about the planet as Hal and Lucy seek out the truth behind Gigi the Robot Dog’s existence. Alternate between each group across twelve chapters, piecing together the narrative threads that bind them and the appearance of the malevolent Grins.

Observe the events unraveling between the eclectic cast of heroes as they experience hardships through the lens of children, witnessing and learning to question the cruelties of the world. View the evolution of the core cast as they rely on one another to overcome challenges, learn lessons, and foster compassion and sincerity along the way.

Robbie Charlotte Lee, Owner and Founder of Kbojisoft said this about the game:

“Atlas Wept is both a love letter to classic RPGs and an exploration of a story and characters I’ve had on my mind for years. My goal was to create an empathy-driven narrative that serves as a look at humanity and the spectrum of emotions enveloped in it, all within an entertaining package!”
