Nintendo revealed a new RPG game titled Silent Hope (Japanese title: Frederica) at the today’s Nintendo Direct. The game, published by XSEED Games, is set to be released on September 28 for Nintendo Switch, followed by a PC (Steam) release on October 4.

According to official introduction, in Silent Hope, a peaceful kingdom was struck by a terrible calamity. In the chaos that followed, the people began to deceive and backstab each other. Their King used his powerful magic to steal away people’s ability to speak and hurled himself into the Abyss. His daughter, the Princess, cried an endless flood of tears until they encased her in a giant crystal teardrop.

Many years after these events faded to memory, seven rainbow-colored lights flew from the Abyss. These rays of hope appeared before the Princess manifesting themselves as seven heroes, ready to answer the Princess' call for help. Why did the King abandon his daughter and his people? And why did he steal their ability to speak?

The game allows you to choose from a motley crew of characters like the well-rounded Wanderer, long-range specialist Archer, or heavy-hitting Warrior to find whose skills suit your playstyle, and embrace new roles and abilities as you gain more experience. Use crystals found throughout the Abyss to switch characters or return to Base Camp.
