Maximum Entertainment, in partnership with CMD Studios, has announced that Fallen Tear: The Ascension is out today on Steam. It will be coming to PlayStation 5, XBOX Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch in 2027.

In this hand-drawn metroidvania, you play as Hira, a mysterious child who must fight the ancient gods of Raoah:

It blends the emotional weight and party-building of classic JRPGs with the freeform exploration of a Metroidvania and a touch of souls-like challenge, across a hand-drawn, interconnected world on the brink of collapse.

Key features include:

• Fated Bonds: Recruit allies to fight and explore alongside you, each lending their own abilities to combat and traversal, and each changing how the world opens up.
• Dynamic Combat: Slash, parry and dodge through Raoah’s guardians, customizing loadouts through deep skill trees and swapping tactics mid-battle.
• A Hand-Drawn World: Explore a massive, interconnected world brought to life with hand-drawn animation and professional voice acting.

Player can also build and customize their own base, recruit allies, and earn upgrades through minigames. Can’t wait? Grab Fallen Tear: The Ascension on Steam, out today, and watch the gameplay trailer below.
