Rayka Studio are delighted to announce that their breathtaking creature-collecting RPG Yaoling: Mythical Journey(formerly known as Home of the Yokai) has arrived on Early Access today! Inspired by Eastern fantasy while taking the best elements from monster catchers, cosy base-builders, and deeply tactical auto-battlers, Yaoling: Mythical Journey is a truly singular creation.
Yaoling: Mythical Journey invites you into the Land of the Ancients – a sacred realm inhabited by humans and a myriad of creatures called Yaolings, who live together in close harmony. Usually a peaceful domain, the Land of the Ancients has been corrupted by a dreadful force which is slowly spreading, even turning Yaolings into menacing shadows of their former selves.
As an aspiring Yaoling Keeper, it’ll be up to you to banish the dark force from the land, as you travel through 30 vast and varied regions – ancient forests, snow-blanketed plains, sunless gorges, and mighty kingdoms all await you. You’ll be able to forge companionships with over 300 unique Yaolings, who can assist you in battle, as well as help you to build your very own cosy village. Of course, you’ll be able to help human villagers out on your travels too, who can come back to help build and join your community.
If you want to stand a chance of ridding the Land of the Ancients of its blight, you’ll have to get to grips with a deep auto-battling system that will pit you and your Yaolings against countless enemies, the 13 Keepers of the Yaoling Schools, and a fearsome legion of Demon Lords. Liberate the realm and the Divine Jade Tree that protects it!
Yaoling: Mythical Journey is available in Early Access for £16.75/$19.99/€19.99. To find out more, and get your hands on Yaoling: Mythical Journey, check it out on Steam here!
