Obsidian‘s latest project, Tyranny is an RPG, where the bad guys, lead by Kyros, has already conquered. We’re going to control one of the commanders of the bad side. It’s up to us if we continue to make the people suffer, or to try to improve their situation by being less evil to them. However, being good will not pay off: the game will become harder! There will be more factions, each having their own questlines, so despite Tyranny taking about 25 hours to beat, there will be replayability in the game. With our companions, we can create a powerful team, and we will also be able to do companion combos: mixing their skills into one powerful attack makes our strategy more diverse.

The skill-based character progression having Tyranny will be available on PC later this year, published by Paradox.
