FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 03 FEB 2022
On February 15th, Poland-based studio Superstatic will release Liberté into Steam Early Access. Liberté is a story-driven, top-down roguelike set in an alternate-history, Lovecraftian version of the French Revolution.
Superstatic prides itself on creating a captivating, shades-of-gray world filled with colorful and intriguing characters. “We started building the world of Liberté from outlining our characters, the actors in our play.” said Kajetan Wyrzykowski of Superstatic. “How they got where they are, what they believe in and hold dear. Once we knew who they are, it was easy to imagine their actions and relationships with each other, as well as the tumultuous world around them.”
A unique blend of fast action and deckbuilder games.
The game’s core gameplay revolves around a unique combination of fast-paced combat and deckbuilder mechanics, inspired by classics like Slay the Spire. Every time Players venture into the game world, they start out with no abilities or bonuses. With every conquered challenge, they draw a card from their personal decks. By playing cards, they gain skills and talents that work together to create powerful combos.
“When designing our Card system, we wanted to make sure it is easy to get into and understand, but also allows experienced Players to set up almost overpowered combos for super satisfying level clears.” explained Daniel Karcher of Superstatic.
Liberté launches with over 100 unique cards for Players to collect and assemble into powerful decks.
A story-driven experience.
Liberté begins on a high note, when the coronation of France’s new king is brutally interrupted by the appearance of an otherworldly horror. The event causes the whole city to tumble into anarchy, with four factions vying to use the supernatural cataclysm to seize power.
At the moment of launch, Liberté’s story content takes around 35 hours to complete, with the script containing over 33,000 words. When the game exits Early Access at the end of 2022, Superstatic expects it will take around 60 hours to complete the full story.
Game features a Story Mode, which simplifies the combat and allows narrative-focused players to fully concentrate on the storytelling part.
Purchase Liberté on Steam when it launches on February 15 and change the fate of four unique factions in their clash for power.
