Newcastle, UK – December 6, 2024: Fresh from its initial reveal just two weeks ago, a new trailer for Empyreal has emerged from the depths to give players a taste of the upcoming action RPG.  

In a far-flung corner of the galaxy an Expedition arrives on a hitherto unexplored planet to find a colossal Monolith built by a lost civilisation. These are no mere ruins: the Monolith is filled with danger, and the Expedition is ill-equipped to unearth the secrets within. All eyes turn towards an elite mercenary who may succeed where all others have failed… 



The debut title from new indie studio Silent Games, Empyreal features real-time combat and an ambitious narrative influenced by a mix of philosophical writing, classical literature and mythology.  

Venture inside the Monolith and face the automatons that yet remain, remnants of the impossibly ancient civilisation that built this unknowable structure. Survive and uncover revelations that transform our understanding of humanity itself.
