Ash of Gods Introduces Four New Heroes Along with New Songs from the Game
Developer Aurum Dust is pleased to share today new artwork, music, and details about four of the main characters from Ash of Gods, the story-driven tactical RPG coming in March 2018. The greatest heroes often come from everyday places and backgrounds – and aren’t always the “Chosen Ones” of ancient lore. Sometimes, they are just “regular folk” who refuse to give in to the darkness, and take up arms to battle evil in all its forms.
Download the new character overview pack for more info on Thorn, the fearless warrior and survivor of countless battles; Gleda, daughter of Thorn, a blademaster and scholar; Blance, the mysterious empath; and Lo Pheng, the deadly mercenary from the island of Shadows.
Along with the new artwork and information, developer Aurum Dust has launched a SoundCloud channel for fans of thematic medieval fantasy music. Tune into their SoundCloud profile now, and immerse yourself in the world of Ash of Gods.
