Heaven’s Vault to receive special edition physical release

Heaven’s Vault to receive limited boxed release...

IGF-winning archeology game Heaven's Vault is the next title to receive a limited physical release thanks to Strictly Limited Games.

Set to release on to the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, Strictly Limited Games have partnered with developer inkle to developed this limited edition version of the game. 

Nominated for the BAFTA, winner of the Independent Games Festival in the category “Best Narrative” and honored several times as one of the top 10 games of 2019 (The New Yorker, Mashable, GamesIndustry.biz), Heaven’s Vault is an adventure game unlike any other. Every choice counts, as the adaptive narrative reacts to your decisions and the game expands on every replay, unlocking deeper secrets.The sprawling open-world game features a massive branching narrative, as well as an entire alien language to decipher. 

'In the Nebula, far-flung moons are linked by a network of rivers in the sky... but the rivers are drying up. Robots once moved freely among humans... until the robots were buried, along with their secrets. An extinct civilization foretold the future... in a language no one remembers. Aliya Elasra is an archeologist. And she's after the truth. Join Aliya and her robot sidekick, Six, to sail in search of lost sites, explore ancient ruins, and translate inscriptions that could unlock the secrets of the Nebula's past and provide the key to its future. Heaven's Vault is an incredibly flexible narrative experience with a complex linguistic puzzle at its core. Every decision you make -- and every translation you guess -- feeds back into the story to weave a tale that changes and expands each time you replay it.'
