Ubisoft have announced the official price and release date for their upcoming RPG, Child of Light.
Child of Light will be available to download for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U and PC on April 3oth for the price of £11.99.
Child of Light has been developed by a small group of developers which are based in Ubisoft Montreal. It uses the powerful UbiArt Framework engine, letting developers bring their art to life by allowing original concept art to be inserted unedited into the game world. In Child of Light, the effect is akin to stepping into an interactive painting.
The game comes as a reimagining of classic fairytales, inviting players on an epic adventure into the magical painted world of Lemuria. Players will uncover mysteries, participate in turn-by-turn combat inspired by classic JRPGs, and explore a mystical kingdom. The game puts players in the shoes of Aurora, a child stolen from her home, who, in her quest to return, must bring back the sun, the moon and the stars held captive by the Queen of the Night. Helped by her companion Igniculus the firefly and several unlikely allies, Aurora will face her darkest fears, including dragons and other mystical creatures, in this modern take on a coming-of-age story.
