Ashen, from Aurora44, is an action RPG where the dark is older than the light and
has staggeringly beautiful graphics.
The game centres around a wanderer in search of a place to call home. There is no sun, and the only natural light comes from eruptions that cover the land in ash. This is a world where nothing lasts, no matter how tightly you cling to it. At its core, Ashen is about forging relationships. Players can guide those they trust to their camp — together, you might just stand a chance.
Ashen hasn’t yet got a release date, but will be released on PC (Windows 10) and is a console exclusive to Xbox One, so out of the Xbox One family, it will be formatted to look best on Xbox One X with 4K HDR graphics.
