Choose Your Braves and Go on an Epic Adventure! Brave’s Rage Global Steam® Early Access is Launching on June 23, 2022!
Shanghai, June 23rd, 2022 - Astrolabe Games are delighted to announce the Global Steam® Early Access of ISVR’s active-time roguelite deckbuilding game, Brave’s Rage, is launching today!
Developed by a tight-knit group of experienced developers at ISVR and launched into Limited Early Access in April for the China region only, Brave’s Rage has reached and maintained a “Very Positive” user review score on Steam®. Since its launch, players from around the world have asked for international language support for Brave’s Rage. Now, with more cards, more content, more gameplay mechanisms, QoL improvements and updated UIs, and fine-tuned storylines, Brave’s Rage is finally accessible to the international player base on PC via Steam®, available in English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese. Additionally, supported by Smilegate, the Korean version of Brave’s Rage is slated to launch exclusively on Stove® at a later date. The macOS version is also almost ready to launch at a slightly later time.
With 8 unique playable characters, over 300 cards, 16 difficulty levels, and 8 different stages, Brave’s Rage is a fusion of the classic roguelite deckbuilding game with an active-time card battle system that allows players to activate “bullet-time”, find the perfect timing to attack or block, and follow up with powerful combos and MAX moves to deal with any situation they encounter during their unknown adventure.
A “Princess-and-Dragon” Tale with a Twist
“The Princess of Owl Kingdom has been abducted by an evil dragon. Take charge and embark on an adventure to bring her back!” – The story of Brave’s Rage seems to be a bit too ordinary and cliche… However, it is actually not that simple. During the adventure, the braves will find out they are somehow trapped inside a world constantly repeating itself – an “Infinite Loop”. Who did this? How could the braves break this out? Could they revert the world to its original state and eventually save the princess? Choose your brave, recruit your teammate, construct your deck, play in different styles, and defeat some of the most fearful foes to free the princess from the curse!
Kaleidoscopic Playstyles and Unlockable Content
There are eight different playable braves (with plans to add more!) in Brave’s Rage, each with its own set of cards and unique skill trees. Of course, some of them are hidden somewhere in the Taoist Peninsula and will not be available until the players meet certain requirements. Throughout the adventure, the braves will also have access to additional cards to build their deck in any way they desire - red cards for melee attacks, yellow cards for range attacks, green cards for blocks, and grey cards for various special effects and tactics… There will be endless possibilities to construct a fun deck. Additionally, the traditional roguelite-RPG elements, including over 100 equippable items, random events, and customized combat skills, will further enrich the play experience so every player will be able to find their own playstyle to enjoy the adventure comfortably.
Expandable and Customizable Difficulty Settings
Currently, the Early Access version of Brave’s Rage offers a total of 16 difficulty levels. Depending on the difficulty level, each playthrough will always have new unlockable content, such as map quests, hidden braves, new story bosses, hidden stages, and cosmetics for braves. The greater the risk, the greater the reward! And for players who love extreme difficulties, Brave’s Rage also supports “Custom Difficulty” so there could always be something new for those who seek challenges. The dev team is also actively planning for even higher difficulty levels for future updates.
Go on an epic journey, and experience Brave's Rage - A (Very!) Active Deckbuilding Game!
