Some of the features in Sol Seraph include the following:

Restore Humanity Back to Prosperity--Balancing side-scrolling action and top-down strategy elements, carefully guide each tribe from the clouds above in order to help expand their territory and dispel the dark fog that shrouds their lands. Once each of the creatures' lairs has been exposed, you must take the role of Helios to fight the monsters head-on.

Take the Fight to the Enemy--Armed with his sword, shield, and magical archery, Helios will need to confront a range of enemies including goblins, beastmen, bat riders, and more on his way to facing the Younger God that controls them. Defeating these challenging foes will grant Helios new magical powers such as healing herbs and ice shards.

Protect the Homeland--Help each tribe determine how to shape their village by utilizing a range of different units, from houses and farms to support the growing population, to building warrior barracks and archer towers to defend themselves against the waves of monster attacks.

Help from the Highest Powers--Yuzo Koshiro, the legend behind many classic video game soundtracks, has composed the opening theme to SolSeraph. Additionally, acclaimed writer Jonas Kyrazes (The Talos Principle, The Sea Will Claim Everything) has lent his talents to craft the game's compelling narrative.

Sol Seraph will be available on Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam. It will come in at the price of $14.99 in North America (with commensurate European pricing).
