'Holomento' Available As Early Access Title, Full Launch In 2023 - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on April 27, 2022 @ 11:09 a.m. PDT

Welcome to the world of Holomento, a permadeath action/RPG with rogue-lite elements like you have never seen before!

A dangerous and amazing quest awaits gamers. The task is bringing back to life a  mysterious world that with every successful venture or confrontation rebuilds Eventide Hollow. A terrible curse preceded your arrival as Eventide Hollow fell into disrepair and ruin. The source of the curse was also its only protection from it….. The Holomento!

Rebuild the world with your Travelers, fight massive enemies and explore a vast open world full of dangers and secrets.

Unlike traditional Rogue-lites, Holomento is not fully procedually generated. Instead it offers handcrafted massive open world which the player can influence over time, while the dungeons you'll explore are being generated. Players will need to rebuild villages and towns, unlock shortcuts and complete various challenges to progress in this beautiful and yet dangerous kingdom. Speaking of dangers: Travelers should make sure to not wake certain giants sleeping in the wilderness.


Holomento is now available through Early Access via Steam and Good Old Games, with new content added monthly throughout 2022.

“What marks Holomento as unique, challenging and must see, is not only the variety of lands, enemies, rpg activities but with each successful conquest, Eventide Hollow slowly comes back to life,” said developer & designer Sean Weech.

The world you traverse is alive and brimming with action and wonderment.  The main regions in the game currently consist of Eventide’s Edge (tutorial area), Eventide Pass (mountainous region), Frigid Fjord (snow region with forts), Central Valley (central region below the castle), East Valley (region in the castle’s shadow), Lush Valley (a lush region featuring a large ruined colosseum), The Autumn Forest (a magical forest where it’s Autumn year-round), Dragon Bone Desert (an arid desert on the far side of the Hollow) and Tori-jin Temple (a temple to the far east).

There is currently one Dungeon in the game (The Sewers) however, more are planned every few months once early access begins. The future dungeons will be The Old Mill (a large mechanical dungeon with lots of moving parts), The Lost City (an ancient city buried in the sands of the Dragon Bone Desert), The Autumn Mountain (a magic mountain towering above the Autumn Forest), The Ice Palace (a frozen palace on the edge of the Frigid Fjord) and more.

Key Features:

  • Explore a handcrafted open world with procedually generated dungeons
  • Permadeath for each and every traveler
  • Rebuild the world and change it over time
  • Survive fighting dangerous enemies: from simple skeletons to massive giants
  • Trade on the Stonk Market or join the Rat Mafia

Holomento is coming to PC (Steam) in Q2 2023.
