Elpis: Fallen Star is a semi-RTS fantasy RPG developed by GENMUGAME, set in a dark, corrupted world teetering on the edge of collapse. Players take on the role of the leader of a ramshackle exploration squad, tasked with venturing into the Abyss—a bottomless rift spewing unspeakable corruption.
The narrative centers around a haunting confrontation with the Demon King, a formidable and enigmatic foe whose presence threatens to unravel reality. With anime-inspired visuals, full voice acting, and a sweeping orchestral score composed by Go Shiina and ACE, the game blends strategic combat with emotional storytelling.
Gameplay revolves around commanding up to eight squad members in semi-real-time battles, where pre-battle planning and mid-combat decisions are equally critical. Players can recruit and invest in characters from four distinct classes—Spellweaver, GhostHunter, Ironclad, and Pala—each offering unique synergies and tactical depth. The “Total Assault” mechanic allows players to unleash devastating team-based attacks, while survival elements like sanity management and resource gathering add layers of complexity.
Currently, Elpis: Fallen Star is available for pre-registration and has completed regional beta testing on Android. The game is set to launch officially on September 26, 2025, and will be available on iOS and Android platforms.
