Perhaps You’d Be Willing to Go to the End of the World for Your Beloved, but Would You Go Beyond It? 

Eternal Hope explores the toil of life after — and during — death as you travel between dimensions in a quest to be reunited with your beloved.

Inspired by the artistic stylings of Studio Ghibli and featuring beautiful environments and an intensely emotional storyline, Eternal Hope follows the story of Ti'bi, a boy who must travel between two dimensions in search of his lost love’s soul. Embarking on a journey filled with undying love and unwavering hope, players will use intuition and quick-on-their-feet thinking to find clever ways to overcome the many obstacles and puzzles in their path.

Not all love is created equal; Eternal Hope’s Ti'bi is on a highly unusual journey — one that he hopes will bring his cherished girlfriend’s soul back from the Shadow World, a purgatory-like realm. Granted the ability to travel between dimensions, he will use this power, along with a few helping hands from otherworldly beings, to solve puzzles that will ultimately lead him to his love’s final resting place in the great beyond. Visiting the Shadow World is no easy feat, however. With corrupted creatures inhabiting this mirror dimension, Ti’bi will make friends — and many enemies — along the way while unearthing ancient secrets, none of which were meant for the living to discover. 

Along with a poignant storyline, visually captivating environments, and compelling characters, Doublehit Studios’ Eternal Hope also has ghastly ghouls aplenty!

The developers are taking a deep look into the Shadow World, revealing more about the mysterious and haunting creatures that dwell in the murky realm. 

The An’mu are the ghostly inhabitants of the Shadow World, and while all of them seem menacing at first glance, that’s hardly the case! In the video, the developers detail these creatures and their role in the protagonist Ti’bi’s love-fueled journey through dimensions. 

While the presence of a mask on a stranger may invoke feelings of distrust and uncertainty, the exact opposite can be said of the An’mu. While wearing their protective masks, the An’mu demonstrate that they are friendly allies willing to help Ti’bi on his journey. Through complex puzzles and hazardous situations masked An’mu can be used to make a quick escape or progress through a level otherwise inaccessible to Ti’bi. On the other hand, an unmasked An’mu should be avoided at all costs —  their exposed appearance means that their souls have been corrupted and they will viciously attack Ti’bi given the chance.

When encountering an unmasked An’mu, there is no chance of talking things out. Ti’bi has to decide whether he will run for safety or risk his life!

Key Features:

• Multi-dimensional Traveler: There’s no luggage check for this kind of travel — brace yourself for interdimensional exploration as Ti’bi travels between realms in order to rescue his beloved’s soul
• You’ve Got a Friend in Me: Make friends as you travel between dimensions, and use their helpful skills and resources to overcome the obstacles you’ll encounter on your journey, but be careful — not every soul has good intentions!
• Blast From the Past: As you venture out on your journey both into the Shadow World and the world of the living, you’ll discover secrets of the land and the ancient ones that dwell there. However, secrets of your own past will also surface; forget the ghoulish beasts that lurk in the shadows — can you face your inner demons?

Eternal Hope is coming to PC (Steam) on August 6, 2020, and later this year on Xbox One,
