Silverfall Earth Awakening, the new fantasy RPG for PC from Ascaron and Monte Cristo Games is available to buy in stores today. A stand alone extension for Silverfall, this exciting action game takes place in a mysterious fantasy world. Whilst travelling across the unknown territories of Nelwë, players will need to battle with an impressive array of formidable creatures in order to save the realm.

To accompany the launch of Silverfall Earth Awakening, assets have been released that show gameplay, characters and the beautiful environments of the magical kingdom of Nelwë. The variety of environments in the game can be seen as the setting of a picturesque village built on a peaceful lake contrasts with one of blazing fire, spilt blood and a vicious battle with a monstrous creature.

Players can choose to play as one of six races - Humans, Elves, Goblins, Trolls and two new tribes, the stocky Dwarves and treacherous Lizardmen. Each race has skills specific only to them. Humans will quickly adapt to their surroundings, skilled with magic and weapons, whilst Lizardmen are agile and fast to react.

There are over 150 skills and magic spells to be mastered including 8 'Ultimate' and 12 unique 'High Level' skills used to cause devastating effects. Players can also use object crafting skills to create armour, weapons and enchantments. A special crafting tool creates thousands of items by combining shapes, textures, colours and types of magic. Players can completely customise their equipment, design weapons for other players and exchange certain items when in multiplayer mode.
