Deck13 Spotlight sign Forge of the Fae as Publisher

Today publisher Deck13 Spotlight and developer Datadyne are thrilled to announce that the glorious JRPG Forge of the Fae joins the Publishers portfolio. The international Team of Datadyne is a perfect fit for the company which brought you CrossCode and Chained Echoes.

Set in a world inspired by 1800s Ireland, Forge of the Fae plunges players into a beautifully crafted narrative where humans and fae are in conflict. As an ancient power awakens and tensions rise, players will follow the journey of Fiora, a young inventor, as she uncovers the secrets of her world while navigating a complex mystery and discovering who she can become. Decisions made will influence the outcome, giving players control over the story’s direction and creating a more personal experience.



Classic Turn-Based Combat and Puzzle-Solving

Drawing inspiration from classic JRPGs, Forge of the Fae features a deep turn-based combat system where strategy reigns supreme. Players will be challenged to master the "ARC Crystal System" and "Adrenaline" systems, which offer versatile, customizable spells and abilities, adding depth and excitement to combat. Alongside the action, intricate puzzles scattered throughout the world encourage exploration and reward players with powerful items and hidden lore.

“Forge of the Fae is a perfect match for us”, says Michael Hoss, Head of Product at Deck13 Spotlight. “Even in its early stages it is incredibly well crafted and pulls all the right triggers. Working with Datadyne over the last couple of weeks also showed us what an amazing team is building this masterpiece.”

“We have found a reliable partner with Deck13 Spotlight”, added David Schooley from Datadyne. ”Not only do they fully understand the vision of the game but they also know the JRPG market so well. We are super excited for the upcoming journey!”

Forge of the Fae will release 2027 for PC and Consoles. A free demo is available through Steam and the game will be playable at the Indie Arena Booth at this year's Gamescom in Cologne and at Tokyo Game Show later this year. Wishlist the game now on Steam.
