About the game

Set in the vast, open-world of Evershade, Tides of Blazefall features a deep, haunting narrative crafted by the award-winning writing team of Krzysztof Piskorski. Following the Blazefall, a cataclysmic event that fractured reality, the world has become a sprawling archipelago of secrets and forgotten history. As a captain searching for your lost identity, freely explore the Forlorn Sea, a massive, seamless expanse where every island holds a story and every wave hides a threat.
