Hero's Song is an open world rogue-like fantasy game done in beautiful 2D pixel art style. Create epic fantasy worlds uniquely shaped by your choices, the power of the gods, and thousands of years of history. Become a legendary hero in a dangerous and mysterious world of magic and monsters. Explore endless dungeons and ancient cities in long forgotten lands in search of knowledge, treasure, and the power of the gods!

In Hero's Song, players can control their own server and host thousands of other players (with up to hundreds playing at one time).

Pixelmage Games has assembled a talented group to create the universe and develop the game, including Bill Trost, Lead Designer and co-creator of the EverQuest franchise, and Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times #1 Best-Selling Author of The Name of the Wind. The core team is already 13 strong and will grow as production ramps up in the coming months.

Despite being announced just earlier this year, Hero's Song has been canceled after a failed Kickstarter and unsuccesful indiegogo campaign. The developer Pixelmage Games was headed by John Smedley, former CEO of Sony Online Entertainment.

Hello Hero's Song Players,

It's with a heavy heart that I have to report that Pixelmage Games is going to be shutting down and we have ceased development on Hero's Song. For the last year, our team has worked tirelessly to make the game we've dreamed about making, and with your support, and the support of our investors, we were able to get the game into Early Access. Unfortunately sales fell short of what we needed to continue development. We knew going in that most startups don't make it, and as an indie game studio we hoped we would be the exception to that rule, but as it turned out we weren't.

We sincerely value our customers. You’re our most important focus and have been from day one. We’re going to offer 100% refunds to all of the people who bought Hero’s Song.

For our Indiegogo customers, please email refunds@pixelmagegames.com with your name and information about which one of the packages you bought so we can make sure you get your money back. Our team will respond to confirm we received your email and we'll make sure you get your refund quickly.

For players that purchased via Steam you will be able to claim your refund through the normal Steam refund process. Go to https://help.steampowered.com and you can get your refund right away.

Thank you for all the support you showed us. We're sorry things worked out the way they did, but we feel strongly that we gave it our all and we're proud of how far we came with the game. The fact that we weren't able to finish the game is painful, but the journey of making Hero's Song has been a great experience for us and we’re just sorry we couldn’t take it all the way.

Thank You,

The Hero's Song team
