Lost Hellden is an action RPG currently in development from Canadian team Artisan Studio.
Set on the planet “Era” where the inhabitants are bound to one of the seven deadly sins just before their first birthday; during all their life, the people of Era have to fight against their urges. Should they fail and succumb, they transform into mindless and aggressive beasts.
One day, a woman gives birth to twins, something that never happened before on Era: one is called Leht and was bound to all the seven deadly sin while his brother, Cyphel, has none.
They are taken to Avilah, the capital city, but one day Leht disappears so Cyphel and his friends set out on a journey to bring back his brother.
Lost Hellden uses a technology called “Deep 2D” to show hand-drawn artwork in 3D graphics. Players can control 8 unique characters that can be customized.
The sound director is Hitoshi Sakimoto, who has worked on songs for “Final Fantasy XII” and “Valkyria Chronicles” while the illustration are made by Takeshi Oga, who has worked on “SIREN” and “Gravity Daze“.
The game is planned to be released in 2025 for Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series and PC.
