Ashes of Oahu - New Screenshots

[Silver]

Worthplaying has some new screenshots for action RPG Ashes of Oahu.

Built using the Unreal 4 Engine, Ashes of Oahu combines innovative action with faction-based gameplay, inviting players to discover the secrets of Hawaii's mystical past while uncovering and exploring a full-scale authentic representation of 500 square miles of game world terrain - from discovering special powers and abilities of the Hawaiian gods, to choosing skills and weapons, and remaking the island in their own way, all while watching out for the powerful Nightmarchers who protect the island.

In Ashes of Oahu, players must fight for survival and learn to tap into the power of the spirit world to become a demigod and help liberate Oahu from the army that has taken its control.

As you explore the apocalyptic paradise of Oahu, you will come upon various areas of settlement. Some will be overrun by Kamapua'a raiders, while others will be run by the various factions that have taken footing. But it's the Pig God's raiders that can be the most dangerous, and it's Kai's job to clear them out.

I'd call it instabuy if they wrote "no endless respawns". Since potential grinding is not mentioned, I'll wait for the release. That'd be…

Ashes of Oahu will launch in Spring of 2019

Eh?

Additional note - this developer is responsible for some VR "spectacle" people didn't like much it seems:

I suspect that, even should this project launch in the next month or so, it's still a far ways from being complete. It does intrigue me, but I won't be plunking down money for this one anytime soon.

What Carnfiex said. I really would like to play an RPG with Hawaiian gods and all that, though.
