Novateria – The New World is a narrative-driven turn-based RPG inspired by games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin.
Players begin their journey sailing to a distant colony in the unexplored lands of the Dovlands. Upon arrival, the settlement stands mysteriously abandoned. No bodies. No survivors. Only scattered clues hinting at what might have happened.
As you investigate the disappearance of the colonists, you will explore a vast frontier filled with hidden ruins, hostile creatures, rival expeditions, and ancient forces awakening beneath the wilderness.
The world of Novateria blends a colonial-era aesthetic with high fantasy. Spellcasters wield arcane magic while soldiers carry flintlock pistols and muskets, creating a setting where enchanted artifacts and black-powder firearms coexist.
Recruit companions, complete quests, and engage in tactical turn-based combat against enemies ranging from wild beasts and hostile settlers to undead horrors and supernatural threats.
Positioning, abilities, terrain, and teamwork determine victory in strategic encounters.
Discover forests, ruins, forgotten settlements, and dangerous wilderness across a new continent.
Arcane spellcasting exists alongside muskets, pistols, and black-powder weaponry.
Uncover the truth behind the vanished colony through investigation and player choice.
Recruit unique characters with their own backstories, abilities, and loyalties.
Side quests, faction conflicts, and exploration shape the fate of the new world.
Recruit allies from across the old world and the Dovlands, each bringing their own skills, loyalties, and personal goals.
