Empyre: Dukes of the Far Frontier has risen up onto Steam

Coin Operated Games Brings Classic, Neo-Victorian RPG Action to #pc via Steam

Auburn, New Hampshire – June 3, 2022 – #coinoperatedgames announces today that its Neo-Victorian RPG #empyredukesofthefarfrontier, has come to #steam. Developed by a team of industry veterans from such influential companies as Crytek, Codemasters, Gameloft and Creative Assembly, #empyredukesofthefarfrontier is a top-down isometric RPG that takes place in a Neo-Victorian Wild West circa 1925. 

… gaze upon a vision of mankind's future in an advanced city built by machines

Empyre: Dukes of the Far Frontier is set in a Neo-Victorian version of the Wild West where you've got a first-class ticket to explore a seemingly utopian city run by steam-powered robots that society has become increasingly reliant upon. In this mecca of machines and social revolution, a carefree life awaits, or so you've been led to believe. Discover the secrets of the robotic working class, and claw your way to the truth in this isometric alternate history RPG adventure!

Featuring a top-down isometric presentation, #empyredukesofthefarfrontier will rekindle old-school #pc RPG fans with feelings of some of the classic story-driven RPGs of the 90s. 

While the combat should feel familiar to veteran players, there’s been a familiar modern twist added now that the game uses a hybrid Real Time/Turn-based System. Players can enter a “Planning Mode” where they choose actions for each character in their party while combat is paused, and when entering into the “Action Mode” all characters will perform simultaneously, giving players complete control over their party while presenting a streamlined combat system that eliminates waiting for each character to act in sequence.

“One of the things we strove for when designing Empyre was to project a believable vision of the future,” said John Randall, Creative Director of Empyre. “But not just any future. A Utopian vision of the future based on Gilded Age turn of the century technology. A future based on steam-powered contraptions and all manner of mechanical marvels. People and society exist and act as they did in the early 20th Century but live in an amazing city fashioned by wondrous machines. We feel this will give the players a one-of-a-kind experience that they haven’t seen anywhere before.” 

Developed by #coinoperatedgames, #empyredukesofthefarfrontier is now available via #steam.
