[Updated] New screenshots and details for upcoming 3D RPG The Shadow Sun

The Shadow Sun is a large-scale 3D RPG, built using Unity3D, that has been in development for quite some time now. In fact we first reported on this game way back in 2011 and then again in June 2013. That is quite some time for a mobile game to be in development. The developers have, however, released some new details and screenshots for The Shadow Sun.

Update: November 25th, 2014 9:48pm PST: The Shadow Sun has finally been released onto Android. We have added the full features list, the launch trailer, and a link to the game on Google Play to this article. Also be aware that while this game costs $4.99 to purchase, it does also include IAPs although these are purely optional.

For those of you not familiar with this game, The Shadow Sun is a western fantasy themed RPG that is being developed by a former BioWare producer and director who help found Ossian Studios. The developers have released some more details about their game such as the fact that it will contain over 10 hours of single-player RPG gameplay. Like a lot of games lately, the choices you make will decide the outcome in this game, except you’re playing an action-RPG title instead of a gamebook.

The Shadow Sun Features:

• A 10-hour adventure where you explore the decadent imperial city of Shar and the exotic desert lands around it, delving into a story filled with intrigue, danger, and shocking surprises.
• Explore over 70 unique areas and uncover 200+ unique items, hidden secrets, and ancient treasures.
• A handy journal tracks your quests and a detailed codex notes new characters, places, and creatures you encounter.
• An original orchestral soundtrack and amazing soundscape will immerse you into this dark fantasy world.
• Create your own male or female character and customize their attributes and appearance.
• Choose from among 30 attacks, spells, and skills to suit your favourite play style, and develop those abilities exactly how you want as the game progresses.
• Solve quests in multiple ways and have new NPC dialogue options open up depending on your skills.
• Ally with one of four companions to adventure alongside you, each with their own personality and abilities, and win their friendship or suffer their disapproval depending on your choices.
• Adopt a faithful dog companion to fight by your side.

In terms of other content, The Shadow Sun will have 70 unique areas to journey through, 200 different items to uncover, ancient treasures, and hidden secret. Players will be able to customize their character, adopt a faithful dog, and ally with companions which will help them complete the large amount of quests that will need to be done. You will also have 30 attacks, spells, and skills at your disposal.

Of course we still don’t have a release date for The Shadow Sun, only that it will finally be arriving onto Android soon.
