Open world action RPG First Dwarf announced for Switch
Star Drifters today unveiled First Dwarf, an action RPG set in a fantasy open world. While we know that it’ll be heading to Switch, a release window hasn’t been determined.
In the game, you’ll play as First Dwarf, a scout in a mana-powered mech that goes on a journey to find a new home for his people. There are elements of combat, building, exploration, and more.
Here’s an overview with some additional information:
First Dwarf is an immersive action RPG with base building elements, which will test your survival and exploration skills in a fantasy open world, sprawling on islands floating in the sky.
Planet Driftland is no more – a war between mages of four races has shattered the globe into floating islands and the inhabitants turned into barbaric tribes. Amongst the desolation the dwarves prevailed, but not for long – resources are running short and the once great civilization is catching its last breath. In a desperate attempt to secure the future, mighty airships are sent to the celestial islands in search of materials to save the dwarven kingdom.
Tru is one of the scouting engineers in a mech, sent to explore new lands hidden in the clouds and find suitable spots for settlements. In his mission he will gather resources, build bases, collect mana to fuel your mechanical armor and fight against dangerous threats by setting up defenses and personally engaging in combat. But the real quest before him is discovering the truth behind his father’s past and uncovering the secret, which will shape the future of the dwarven kingdom..
