Risen is Out Now on PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch

Experience the cult open-world RPG from Piranha Bytes (developers of Gothic and Elex) with the release of Risen on consoles 14 years after the initial PC release. Ruins have risen from the ground across Faranga, with dangerous monsters slowly taking control of the volcanic island. Wield a sword, staff, and over 20 spells to defend the land from monstrous creatures. Explore the gritty and atmospheric world of Risen, where every choice has a consequence.

Key Features of Risen

  • Port of the cult RPG with full gamepad controls and reworked UI
  • Open-world action RPG where every action has consequences
  • Divided into 4 chapters, letting you decide which side you will join
  • Over 20 different spells to choose from, cast either through scrolls or runes
  • Fully seamless world streaming support – No loading screens
  • With each level, your character will learn and improve their skills
  • Countless side quests and creatures to discover
  • Over 60 hours of immersive open-world gameplay

Risen is out now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Keep in mind that this is a port, not a remake or a remaster. You can watch the not-so-PG-rated release trailer below to get an idea of the gameplay and visuals. For more on Piranha Bytes, check out our review for Elex II and, in case you missed it, Gothic, another RPG from the same team, is getting an untitled remake soon.
