Is The End of The Sun really happening January 29? That’s a few billion years sooner than…..wait, never mind, it’s a video game. The End Of The Sun is a first-person adventure from Poland, steeped in real Slavic mythology.
You are Ashter, time-traveling sorcerer, who has the ability to experience events in a non-linear fashion. You use this ability to solve mysteries and open new areas to explore. “The story begins in a mysterious village marked by burnt-out bonfires, where players navigate a dynamic environment to uncover secrets hidden in the ashes of the past,” says the development team. “With the power to manipulate time, players witness key events in the lives of the villagers, exploring how their choices shape the present and future.” We have to admit it’s original.
- Authentic worldbuilding: Leveraging a photogrammetry, the game recreates detailed environments, including entire buildings and artifacts from real-world ethnographic museums. Players will immerse themselves in a setting that’s as historically accurate as it is visually stunning.
- Nonlinear storyline: Explore the story at your own pace and uncover the hidden layers that evolves with the seasons and years.
- Time-Travel mechanics: Shift between four distinct periods, each reflecting different stages in the lives of the villagers. Experience their stories in spring, summer, autumn, and winter, with years separating each moment in time.
- Slavic culture and mysticism: Dive deep into forgotten traditions, uncover ancient rituals, and encounter mythical creatures rooted in Slavic folklore.
- Dynamic gameplay environment: Real-time changes in weather, lighting, and time of day create an atmosphere of constant discovery and adaptation.
The End of The Sun will be released to Steam, GOG and EGS on January 29, 2025, with plans to expand the game’s reach to consoles in the future.
