'Yaga' (ALL) Gets Release Date - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Oct. 23, 2019 @ 8:40 a.m. PDT

Yaga is an action RPG that tells the story of Ivan, a one-handed blacksmith with incredibly bad luck, who must take on the impossible tasks given to him by the Tzar.

Smash, clobber and bash the murderous legends of Slavic mythology in this darkly funny action role-playing game that changes every time you play. All the while the mysterious witch, Baba Yaga, watches over Ivan’s fate as he smashes and clobbers a variety of nefarious monsters and legends inspired by Slavic folk tales.

In Yaga, players will dive into a deep forging system to make weapons like teleporting lightning hammers and hookshot pitchforks, in order to defeat the murderous legends of Slavic folklore. With multiple endings, multiple ways of solving encounters, procedural map, lots of characters to encounter, and hidden secrets mean Yaga is meant to be played over and over again.

The world of Yaga is a world steeped in Slavic folklore and ancient Pagan beliefs. Featuring a head-bobbing Romanian hip-hop soundtrack from Subcarpați and striking, hand-drawn 2D artwork.


PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch players will also have a chance to enjoy a pre-order 20% discount. The pre-order discount is currently live on the Epic Games Store, while the Xbox One and Nintendo Switch pre-sales will go live November 4.

Key Features:

  • Bludgeon the ancient monsters of Slavic folklore using a vast arsenal of hammers and tools forged by Ivan’s own hands.
  • Your actions change Ivan’s story, his reputation, and the upgrades he can choose.
  • Experiment in the deep forging system to make weapons like teleporting lightning hammers and hookshot pitchforks.
  • Explore the combinations of talismans, magic items, blessings, perks, and curses to fundamentally change how Ivan plays.
  • Multiple endings, multiple mission outcomes, random maps, random encounters, and hidden secrets mean Yaga is meant to be played over and over again.
  • Ivan’s grandma just wants him to find a wife. Don’t disappoint her!

Yaga is coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC (Epic Games store) on November 12, 2019.
