The moment has arrived for adventurers and thrill-seekers to return to the enchanting yet eerie universe of Random. A free demo of "Lost in Random: The Eternal Die" has made its debut on Xbox, offering gamers an enticing taste of this highly anticipated new installment. If you’ve been yearning for a journey into a realm teeming with mystery, peril, and a sprinkle of destiny, now’s your chance to dive into the chaos.
A Sneak Peek Into The Eternal Die
In this demo, you’ll find yourself exploring the first of four sinister realms within the Black Die, all under the rule of Mare the Knight. Prepare for a world filled with unpredictable peril and see how you fare against its first formidable boss, The Doublet Twins. But fear not, for you won’t face these trials empty-handed.
Armed with the Sword of Sixtopia, a swift and deadly weapon perfect for rapid and spinning attacks, along with powerful card abilities and relics, you can tailor your fighting style to suit your strengths. Accompanied by your trusty die-companion, Fortune, you can unleash devastating damage and boost your skills through the innovative relic system, providing a nuanced and dynamic combat experience. Each playthrough promises a fresh challenge!
During your time with the demo, you can delve into our newly introduced relic system and tiered upgrades, empowering you every step of your journey. Each setback isn’t the end but an opportunity to return to the Sanctuary, unlock new abilities, sharpen your weapons, and gear up for another attempt. Be on the lookout for Aama’s missing dicelings; finding them unlocks powerful, permanent enhancements that bring you closer to escaping this nightmarish world.
And this is merely the beginning! The full game will showcase three additional weapons—the mighty Helleven’s Hammer, the deadly Sevendipity Striker, and Lance of Lady Luck—each offering unique combat styles and upgrade paths, alongside 15 unique card abilities and more than 100 relics, leaving endless possibilities for creative and chaotic builds.
Beyond the battles, the demo opens up the bizarre landscape of the Black Die for exploration. Trapped by Mare the Knight, your quest is to uncover mysteries, engage with peculiar inhabitants, and piece together your own path to freedom. Engage with characters like Chance, who offers guidance through this twisted domain. Collect rewards for returning Aama’s children, gather supplies from Mannie Chex’s pop-up shop, and, if bold enough, challenge the enigmatic Wager Rollins to a game of chance.
Fans of "Lost in Random" will relish this chance to revisit its delightfully odd world, now infused with a roguelite twist. We’re thrilled for you to experience it!
Embarking on The Next Chapter
"The Eternal Die" invites players back to the strange and ever-shifting world of Random, emphasizing chance as a more crucial gameplay element. Adapting a roguelite framework, each run becomes a high-risk journey where skill, strategy, and a bit of luck dictate your outcome. Embrace the chaos, arm yourself with potent weapons, and test your mettle against the dangers of the Black Die.
According to Martin Storm, the Game Director, "The Eternal Die offers combat that’s fast-paced and skill-intensive, filled with intricate synergies. Every dice roll, battle, and evolving encounter will challenge your adaptability. Each run unveils powerful upgrades and the unpredictable magic of Random in a brand-new light.”
At the heart of this tale is a new protagonist: Queen Aleksandra, once the unyielding ruler of Random, now stripped of her power and thrust into the relentless trials of the Black Die. She must rely on her cunning, combat prowess, and her ever-adorable die-companion, Fortune, to face the ancient menace that has taken everything from her and reclaim her stolen legacy. Allies, both new and familiar, might emerge along the way—if fortune favors you.
The decision to center the story on Aleksandra ties into the evolving gameplay, as Oskar Hanska, Senior Narrative Designer, shares: "By aligning the more action-focused gameplay with the story of the formidable Queen Aleksandra, we dive deeper into her tale and powers.”
