FDG Entertainment announced the release of Oceanhorn – Monster of Uncharted Seas today for both Xbox One and PS4 in North America and Europe.

 

Fans of the franchise will be a familiar with this console port of the acclaimed and popular iOS version of Oceanhorn.

Newcomers to the series can expect a gameplay style similar to that of Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, but can also expect a refreshing and unique storyline, as well as hours of adventure filled with thoughtful puzzles and exciting combat.

The story in Oceanhorn – Monster of the Uncharted Seas follows a young boy, who sets sail on an adventure to find out what happened to his father, as well as his connection to Oceanhorn, the mysterious sea monster.    The combat system features both a mixture of magic and melee, as well as exciting dungeon battles, along with challenging puzzles that the player will face, while exploring more than 10 unique islands.

Fans can also expect to hear an illustrious score composed by music legends Nobuo Uematsu (of Final Fantasy fame) and Kenji Ito.   The score for Oceanhorn is Uematsu’s first ever non-Japanese project.

We got our hands on the Xbox One version, and will post some more updates soon once we have had some more time to dive into it.

Oceanhorn – Monster of the Uncharted Seas is available right now, digitally for both Xbox One and Playstation 4, for $14.99 in the U.S.
