Spiders and Focus Home Interactive have released the first part in a dev diary webseries for their upcoming RPG, GreedFall.

The first episode, called Terra Incognita, explores the inspirations that the devs drew upon to create GreedFall‘s 17th Century-style fantasy world.

Here’s a rundown of the game:

Explore uncharted new lands as you set foot on a remote island seeping with magic, and filled with riches, lost secrets, and fantastic creatures.

Forge this new world’s destiny, as you befriend or betray companions and entire factions. With diplomacy, deception and force, become part of a living, evolving world – influence its course and shape your story.

• Engage in a core roleplaying experience – achieve quests and complete objectives in a multitude of different ways – through combat, diplomacy, deception, or stealth.
• Complete freedom in character progression – play as a male or female, customize your appearance, and freely choose your abilities, spells and skills.
• Delve into a mysterious world of magic – begin a grand journey and uncover ancient secrets protected by supernatural beings, manifestations of the island’s earthly magic.

GreedFall is releasing on September 10th for Windows PC (via Steam), PS4, and Xbox One.
