Testament: The Order of High Human will be releasing on July 13th for PC, with PlayStation and Xbox releases to follow at a later date. To mark this announcement, developer Fairyship Games has release a new trailer. The game is an action RPG set in a post apocalyptic fantasy world where players take on the role of Aran, the king of the high humans in Tessara.
In this world of Testament: The Order of High Human, Aran has been betrayed by his brother Arva, who has stolen Aran’s powers, and the world has been plunged into darkness with monsters roaming the land. Aran will be able to use his sword, bow, and magic to confront the dangers of the world, with all of the abilities linked to them being upgradeable.
“It’s amazing to be able to unveil Testament: The Order of High Human’s launch date after the best part of five years in development,” said co-creator and studio co-founder Moe Naderi. “The reaction to the first trailer we put out last month has been immense, and we hope players are going to like our ‘melting pot’ approach of tipping Testament’s hat to some of the biggest adventure games from the last decade in play.”
The features of Testament: The Order of High Human include:
