Developer Starward Industries shared new details about its upcoming anti-combat action RPG Dante's Ring ahead of a planned early access release.

The Invincible developer's latest project will feature arcade and survival elements and will task players with enduring the "unrelenting forces of nature during an unexpected volcanic eruption." It takes place on an eerie and ancient yet mysterious island.

Dante's Ring Early Access

This is the place where you will have to work on saving as many lost beings as you possibly can. This particular requirement to save people instead of fighting enemies is what makes the upcoming game "anti-combat."

The developer said that players will go on a perilous journey to the "very gates of hell" where they will become bold explorers. They will strive to survive and rescue as many lives as they possibly can.

All of these happen while Mother Nature throws everything she has into the Ring of Fire and creates dangerous situations. In Dante's Ring, you can uncover various secrets that have been buried deep beneath the island, according to Eurogamer.

It also forces you to face molten lava flows, powerful earthquakes, and volcanic fires. All you have is your fireproof armor and stylized retro weapons. The game will also occasionally force players to navigate life and death through strategic planning and ingenuity.

You will also navigate complex moral choices that will shape your story within the game. The main questions you have to answer include how much you are willing to sacrifice to save one more life.

An Anti-Combat RPG

Dante's Ring focuses on players trying to rescue and survive with the use of their retro equipment. They are put in a situation where they must race against nature's wrath among mystical beliefs, WCCFTech said.

The upcoming anti-combat RPG will offer players a fresh approach to gameplay and focus on avoiding combat. You will instead immerse yourself in a mesmerizing and mysterious world to save lives.

The early access period for Dante's Ring is scheduled to start sometime next year. The developer is marketing the anti-combat RPG where two worlds cross into each other. It also features a variety of intricate puzzles you need to solve to move forward.

You can also break through different obstacles blocking your way while carefully managing your supplies to survive. Players will have to find their own way to save people and animals that they encounter through their journey.

The game has a variety of quests and missions that have outcomes that can influence the course of your story, according to Bleeding Cool.
