New RPG “Cris Tales” announced. Debut demo available now on Steam.

Experience the past, present, and future simultaneously in gorgeous indie love letter to classic JRPGs

Indie publisher Modus Games along with developers Dreams Uncorporated and SYCK are pleased to reveal Cris Tales, a breathtakingly lush RPG following a heroine’s quest through past and future visions of her world to curb a merciless Empress’ rule and prevent a cataclysm. Gamers can explore its vibrant universe firsthand via the playable debut demo available now until June 24th on Steam and E3 attendees can see an expanded look at the game in person by visiting Modus in the South Hall at booth #2513. The game is slated to release next year on all platforms.

Cris Tales’ combat calls for a calculated strategy as players guide protagonist Crisbell and her allies through turn-based battles where a unique time magic mechanic can alter her foes’ timelines. Attributes and advantages change depending on an enemy’s placement in time, making each encounter an engaging dance of coordinating team strikes, defense possibilities, and warping timetables.

Crisbell’s journey leads her through a fantastical and exquisitely detailed world where she’ll meet incredible allies and witness stunning vistas across five varied regions, like the pristine towers of the kingdom of Crystallis and the grimy slums of Saint Clarity. Her party’s actions leave a profound influence across time in and out of battle, meaningfully impacting gameplay. Witness the results of your choices in real time through traditionally animated graphics and experience a branching ending while braving a visually dynamic land in need of saving.
 
Cris Tales is scheduled to release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC in 2020. For the latest on Cris Tales, visit www.cristalesgame.com and be sure to check Modus Games’ official site (https://modusgames.com/) or follow them on Discord and Twitter (@Modus_Games).
