The Way of Wrath reveals new player origin

The Bronze Age SRPG gets a new character option, and the team continues to have way too much fun with mocap

March 1, 2023 - Hooded Horse is excited to share the latest update for Bronze Age strategy RPG The Way of Wrath. As the team at ANIMMAL works towards an improved demo for later in the year, they’ve shared a new tribal leader origin for the player’s character.

The Skybound tribal leader origin, is a shaman-type character important to Thein society. They are very involved in everyday lives, and their power rivals that of the strongest warlords. Skybound shamans guide the people with a strict spiritual doctrine that has helped their people thrive in the harsh arctic wastelands they call home.



Where the Yarbogha origin dominates the battle through terror and raw brutality, the Skybound inspires allies through fearsome battle dances and the use of secret shaman tools, gadgets, and concoctions to control the battlefield. Players who choose the Skybound origin will enjoy a unique experience in social interactions with other characters. 

Read more about this new origin in the
development update on Steam, as well as see how the studio’s art director brings the character to life using motion capture. Dato really had to embrace his inner shaman for this one!

The Way of Wrath is due out in early access for PC via
Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store. A press kit is available.
