Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical is an interactive roleplaying musical game set in a modern fantasy world where Greek Gods live hidden among us.

Written by David Gaider, lead writer of the Dragon Age series comes Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical - an urban fantasy tale of finding your place, taking charge of your fate, and discovering answers. Your choices will change the endings, as well as the path you take to get there.

College dropout Grace is quickly pulled into that world when she is granted the power of a Muse—power she’ll need to find out the truth behind her predecessor’s death. The choices players make as they charm, negotiate, or strong-arm their way through the game, including in original, fully interactive musical numbers, will impact their path to the end. Along the way, players will shape the soundtrack to their own one-of-a-kind musical experience as they help Grace find her voice, determining whom she allies with, who she can trust, and who may betray her. With four potential paramours, players can even stoke the fires of romance, and explore, pursue, and confess their love.

A compelling story of hope, self-discovery, and forging your path.

In a modern fantasy world, college dropout Grace is granted the power of a Muse - power she’ll need to find out the truth behind her predecessor’s death before time runs out. You’ll decide who Grace allies with, who she can trust, and who may betray her in this beautifully hand-illustrated roleplaying musical.

Adventure, love, and songs await!

Charm, negotiate, or strong-arm your way through their world as Grace, playing through original, fully interactive musical numbers composed by Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory (Journey, Banner Saga), Tripod (musicians Scott Edgar, Steven Gates, and Simon Hall) and Eurovision Australia’s own Montaigne (Jess Cerro). Fully orchestrated, Stray Gods is voice-directed by Troy Baker and stars Laura Bailey, Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and many more cast members from games, television, and Broadway to be revealed soon. With thousands of potential variations based on your choices, you’ll craft the soundtrack to your own one of a kind musical experience.

In addition to the previously announced PC version, Humble Games and Summerfall Studios announced that Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical will be also be coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on August 3, 2023.

Choice and consequence built from the DNA of RPGs - no two playthroughs are the same.

Delve into a hidden world of mythic Greek gods and monsters as you get to know a cast of hilarious, enigmatic, and compelling characters. Forget what you know about these mythological beings - in Stray Gods you’ll forge friendships and find foes with many familiar names, but not so familiar stories. Play as star and stagehand as you determine the story you want to tell through conversation and song.

Find friendship, love, or yourself.

Build friendships with mortals and Gods alike. Stoke the fires of romance if you so choose - explore, pursue, and confess your love with four potential paramours. Decide who you want to be through every choice. David Gaider’s storytelling and characters come to life with performances by an all-star cast, with the likes of Laura Bailey (The Last of Us 2, Critical Role), Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (Steven Universe, Resident Evil) and more cast members across video games, television, and Broadway to be revealed soon.

A musical for video game lovers, and a video game for musical lovers.

With all the comedy and tragedy of your favorite stage shows, Stray Gods is a tongue-in-cheek and heartfelt reconception of Greek mythology combining what we love about contemporary musical theater (think Hadestown, Buffy: Once More With Feeling, and Wicked) with video games where character and story take center stage (think Life is Strange, Dragon Age, and Dream Daddy). Collaborating with some of the best in music, broadway, television, and games - Stray Gods is a debut not to be missed.

Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical will be launching for Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) on August 3, 2023.
