Songs of Silence is a beautifully crafted mix of strategic campaigns and fast-paced tactical battles. It is brought to life with stunning Art Nouveau-inspired visuals and energized by a compelling original score by composer Hitoshi Sakimoto (Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy 12). The game was funded on Kickstarter in under eight hours earlier this year and initially launched into Steam Early Access in June 2024.
“The release of Songs of Silence is a huge milestone for our studio,” said Creative Director Alex Kehr. “Following our journey in Steam Early Access, our players’ feedback has shaped the game into something truly special. We are so excited for the community to dive into the 1.0 version of Songs of Silence to experience its epic story campaign, hours upon hours of multiplayer content, finely-tuned combat, and tons of gameplay options that we feel reinvigorates the 4X strategy genre.”
On the advent of light, the Gods waged war and tore the world asunder. Two weaker worlds emerged: one of Light and one of Dark. A new human civilization arose from the ashes of the defeated Firstborn: the Starborn, led by their guiding star. A bright age of enlightenment followed. But peace would not last—the unstable worlds birthed all-consuming Purgatories. The people turned to war over what land remained; thus, the chaotic Age of a Thousand Kings began.
To this day, the Silence continues to spread. Relentless. Unstoppable. Both worlds are on the brink of ruin. Will uneasy alliances between old enemies be strong enough to halt the encroaching terror of this all- consuming existential threat, or will ancient wrongs prove too terrible to forgive?
Songs of Silence features a unique combination of kingdom and army management, hero development, and real-time combat, experienced through a 15+ hour story campaign and PvP/Co-op multiplayer skirmishes. Lead powerful armies conscripted from a roster of over 100 units as you explore beautiful handmade campaigns and custom multiplayer maps. Outwit your opponents by laying deadly ambushes in the terrain or march right up to the front gates to lay siege to their cities. Manage hard-won resources to rebuild a ravaged realm and defeat your rival kingdoms.
Key Features of Songs of Silence:
Classic 4X Strategy: Lead your armies, manage resources, and conquer rival kingdoms in a game that blends deep strategy with engaging campaigns and multiplayer maps
Fast-Paced Tactical Battles: Take control of your troops in real-time, utilizing clever tactics, reinforcements, and even divine interventions to outwit your enemies
Three Unique Factions: Each faction has its own strengths, units, and heroes, offering distinct strategies and play styles
Art Nouveau Aesthetic: Inspired by Alphonse Mucha and the Art Nouveau movement, Songs of Silence breathes vibrant colors and elegance into the strategy genre
Cards of Fate: Use cards representing unique actions and abilities to change the course of battles and influence the strategic map
Legendary Music: The game’s original soundtrack is composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto, known for his iconic work on Final Fantasy Tactics and Final Fantasy 12
Songs of Silence will be released digitally on November 13, 2024, on Windows PC via Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store and on PlayStation® 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
