UDX Interactive and Game Pill have announced the release date of machine learning AI generated RPG Wheel of Fate from Steam Early Access.
As previously reported, players are tasked with delving deep into an ever-changing dungeon, The Wheel, to become the next Avatar of Fate and hold back an ancient evil dubbed the Fateless. The game boasts using machine learning to adapt to your gameplay style. Acting as a dungeon master, the AI changes the dungeon, environmental effects, the story, and random events based on your actions.
The “Active Response Battle system” is turn based with QTEs for extra damage akin to Legend of the Dragoon or the early Paper Mario series. Outside of the randomized dungeons, players can defend and upgrade Kismet’s Fall, along with upgrading buildings and customizing your home.
Wheel of Fate launches from Early Access February 12th on Windows PC (via Steam), coinciding with the 1.4.0 Virgo update.
You can find the launch trailer below.
You can find the full rundown (via Steam) below.
Welcome to the land of Providence. The Wheel of Fate has chosen you to be its Avatar and save the world.
Fate is the force that connects all beings, maintaining order in the universe, while an ancient enemy known as The Affliction thrives on chaos. As it spreads throughout the cosmos it severs the threads of Fate’s connection, turning those it infects into deranged beings known as The Fateless. And in this battle, The Affliction is winning. So, The Wheel of Fate must pull back its shroud and reveal itself in the land of Providence and choose an Avatar to act through; a champion to fight the Fateless hordes and find the secret to defeating the Affliction. You are that champion, the Avatar of the Wheel of Fate!
