Atlas Wept, a retro-inspired RPG developed and published by Kbojisoft, is set to embark on an introspective journey on PC via Steam starting Wednesday, January 17, 2024. The game blends turn-based combat with bullet hell action, promising a unique gaming experience for RPG enthusiasts.

The narrative follows two groups of wayward children navigating the uncertainties of childhood and the harsh realities of the world. Players will toggle between both groups, exploring vibrant pixelated environments across alternating chapters. Each challenge they overcome allows them to learn and mature in real-time, connecting the dots of this winding tale.

Atlas Wept offers a range of colorful locations to traverse, including underground caverns, abandoned train stations, and towering mountains. The dynamic turn-based battle system integrates an ATB system and bullet hell mechanics to take down threatening enemies. Fans of RPG favorites like Mother and Undertale will find Atlas Wept comfortingly familiar, while still offering a compelling journey with an identity of its own.
