Watch the First Trailer for Supergiant Games' Pyre

Following the critical and popular acclaim of Bastion and Transistor, Supergiant Games is announcing its third game, Pryre. The party-based role-playing game has players leading a band of exiles through an ancient competition spread across a vast and mystical purgatory, making it something of a departure from the top-down action of its previous two games.

Here’s what the team had to say about Pyre:

“Pyre once again showcases our team’s commitment to rich atmospheric presentation and storytelling, along with a distinctive gameplay blend that combines expressive decision-making on the world map with fast, action-packed confrontations against rival groups of exiles whose own freedom is at stake. We want to create a large cast of characters you can grow close to as you travel together across a strange and wondrous land.”

Pyre will be available in 2017. Like Transistor, it will launch simultaneously on Steam and the PlayStation 4.
