New Arc Line (2024)

Take a stand in the eternal conflict between Arcane Magic and Steampunk Revolution and tip the uneasy balance between sorcery, elves, dwarves and mysterious monsters on one side and steampunk gadgets, zeppelins, and tesla guns on the other in this single-player, party-based, story-rich RPG.

New Arc Line is a stirring game that brings players into the precipice of new hope in a foreign land of glowing illusions. The game’s backdrop paints a grim yet promising narrative, where players venture through an entrancing city of supposed progress, New Arc, in a desperate quest for a cure for their family’s fatal disease. Although the city shines with the allure of promise from afar, the closer realization presents a more grim reality lined with corruption, segregation, and inequality. It’s a compelling tale of striving from the very depths of societal distress, the constant navigation of challenging decisions, and mustering the courage to rise against the odds.

New Arc Line provides agency for players to reflect their morally grey choices, painting their path either as a hero or villain in this technopunk world. The game ensures character customization, with choices such as human, dwarf, elf, or giant, as well as defining gender, appearance, and background. Be aware, these choices will shape your interactions with the inhabitants of this world, as they hold their own prejudices.

Along the tumultuous journey, players will meet and recruit a versatile cast of characters, each bearing their own history and personal demons. The ability to intertwine your journey with theirs, guiding their growth or exploiting their potentials for personal gain adds a layer of depth to the narrative. The game also teases potential love interests, thus filling out a holistic role-playing experience.

New Arc Line fuses technology and magic, allowing players a rich 6 class, 12 subclass progression system to suit their playstyle. This innovation offers possibilities for players to become a Hellfire occultist, a Celestial sage, or a Dieselpunk engineer, among many other paths to mastery. Battles are set in a turn-based tactical format, encouraging players to devise cunning strategies or face opponents head-on in aggressive combat.

The allure of New Arc Line comes with the ripple effects of your decisions, shaping the destiny of this new world; starting as a humble immigrant, your growing influence will become the stuff of headlines. This world’s fate is intrinsically tied to your decisions.
