About

Hero's Song is an open world roguelike fantasy action RPG with a beautiful 2D pixel art style. Create epic fantasy worlds uniquely shaped by your choices, the power of the Gods, and thousands of years of procedurally generated history. Adventure alone or with up to 25 friends (during Early Access) on your own server and crush your foes. Become a legendary hero in a dangerous and mysterious world of magic and monsters. Explore endless dungeons and ancient cities in long-forgotten lands in search of knowledge, treasure, and the power of the Gods!A hardcore action RPG for hardcore gamers
In Hero's Song, you use the familiar click-to-move and attack controls of classic action RPGs to navigate the battlefield, and outwit, overpower, and overcome your enemies.

  • Challenge yourself to use a wide variety of melee, ranged, and magical abilities and defeat the intelligent tactics of your enemies.
  • True to its hardcore nature, combat in Hero's Song is dangerous and has very real consequences, including the chance of permanent death.
  • Friendly fire is always defaulted to "on," so positioning and precision are very important considerations. Death will come quickly if you think this is a simple clickfest.
Create and explore epic fantasy worlds
Within a universe crafted by Patrick Rothfuss, the New York Times bestselling author of The Kingkiller Chronicle, the worlds of Hero's Song are living ecosystems with deep histories.

  • Choose a pantheon of gods to dominate your world, influencing not just the physical geography but thousands of years of compelling history, including your hero's bloodlines.
  • Adventure far and wide across grasslands, forests, deserts, tundra, oceans, and other procedurally generated environments.
  • Stumble upon your own stories by following a merry band of warriors, rescuing a traveling merchant from a pack of wolves, or slaughtering an entire village.
Become a legend
In worlds so vast you will never encounter every living being, worthy heroes can accumulate wealth and power beyond imagining, ultimately ascending to godhood themselves.

  • Discover hundreds of crafting recipes and thousands of hard-to-find resources while contending with a horde of dangerous creatures and self-interested factions.
  • Loot, craft, and steal nearly 8,000 handmade items, including ancient and magical artifacts passed down through the generations and lost to time.
  • Struggle to survive in a harsh fantasy world, attending to basic needs, camping in the wilderness, and treating injuries and illness.
Join a community of heroes online
Hero's Song offers an online community of heroes from which you can recruit other players to join you on your adventures, or battle for supremacy on the field.

  • Host your own persistent worlds supporting up to 25 simultaneous players.
  • Customize your public world, including PvP, permadeath, and the day/night cycle.
  • Join a public world without a separate game client.

Hero's Song reviews and comments

Early Access Review Is an early access. The game paints a priori very well, I hope they continue with the idea that has and translate to all the possible languages, to reach all the public possible.

Early Access Review Well it is sad enough that the game Production is stopped. But at least they grant full Refund for the game. More then many others do. Still: Do NOT buy. There will be no updates or progress anymore.

Early access review early entry so crying about what's not there yet is just dumb, game with a big potential and that will concretisera in good game if the promises are held but that's another story...

Early Access Review As MMO with ANNOUNCED but in Reality only a Single Player with Coop. So no more an MMO than Minecraft. I would have expected at least a few official Servers here to deal with a few hundred, if not a thousand, other Games. So as a Single Player it is too boring for me, even if some Ideas and also the Graphic Style appeal to me. Not an MMO-i want a refund

Early Access Review At The moment I don't recommend the game. -In What seemed interesting, that is to create your own world so that others can enter, there are hardly options to configure your game. -Pretty boring. -Scarce Crafting. -Problems with ScrollBars when creating the character and in the sound menu. -The map seems horrendous and you do not know where you are exactly. + Seems to get corrections and updates at a good pace. + A very clear planning in the project, with deadlines set for its release. With the EA have fulfilled. If you want to help make the game better reporting bugs and giving suggestions then go ahead. If you want to enjoy the game, now it doesn't make sense to buy it for that. I gave it back and later I'll give it another chance.

Early Access Review Considering that the Game is still in a very early Stage of development, reviews make almost no Sense ... It can be said with a clear Conscience that it is properly patched. New content and bugfixes that are traceable and useful are available with every Update. What is to come is also paste (currently for example, warping to a Friend). Playing online on a public Server with Friends together already works out quite well and you also meet other Players from Time to time, despite the giant map. (100km ², at the big map) Local lobbies aren't really folding well yet. As with all ea titles, I would say that waiting is first the order of the day and see how it develops. Since the 7th, the Game is now in the ea and Developing games is not a shrink-like And despite one setback or another, the Boys and Girls of Pixelmage Games LLC continue to make an Effort and work diligently on the game of their Dreams.
