Silent Hope dives into the action-RPG depths in October

Fans of dungeon-crawling and base-building seem to have something to look forward to. Silent Hope is an action-RPG with roguish ideas and at-home base progression, and it arrives on October 3, 2023.

Revealed at today’s Nintendo Direct, Silent Hope stars seven champions trying to save a princess from a prison of her own tears. (That’s a big mood.)

The goal is to plumb the depths of the abyss, recovering resources and bringing them back to the surface. Then, back up top, you can do a bunch of base-building and home upkeep. This looks to include forging, farming, animal caretaking, and more.

It seems vaguely Rune Factory-ish, with a roguelite twist, and that’s a good pitch in my opinion. We’ll see how the whole venture comes together later this year, when Silent Hope hits on October 3.
