Fall of Light Revealed, Gamescom Trailer

One of our eagle-eyed readers pointed out that 1C Company and RuneHeads are teaming up on exploration-focused and Dark Souls-inspired RPG entitled Fall of Light, which is tentatively scheduled for a Q3 2017 release. The game will be shown at this month's Gamescom event in Cologne, Germany, and that has led to the availability of a new two-minute trailer:



And here are the two paragraphs being offered up to set the game's premise while we wait for some eyes-on or hands-on previews:
As Nyx, an old, retired warrior, evade the Shadows and find your way through the crooked corridors of gloomy dungeons, navigate the treacherous pathways of the darkened overworld and fight emissaries of darkness in long-forgotten temples. Many puzzles and deadly traps stand between you and your goal – to bring your daughter Aether to the last place on the face of Earth that still sees light.

Inspired by games such as Dark Souls and ICO, Fall of Light rewards those who explore the world on their own and draw their own conclusions. Meet odd characters, search through every nook and cranny to unlock hidden secrets and learn more about the history and lore of the somber world around you. Pick your favorite combination of close-range weapons, crossbows and shields, determine your fighting stance and get ready to face hordes of crafty enemies. And above all, keep your daughter from harm, as she is the light piercing the darkness and the key to unlocking forbidden passages.
