PORTLAND, JANUARY 25, 2024 - Panic and the international team behind Arco are excited to announce that a demo for their gorgeous turn-based action RPG is available today ahead of the Steam Next Fest. The demo includes a small tutorial, a snippet of the campaign where you’ll play as Itzae - one of four playable characters who will each have their own scenario in the full game - and explore a mysterious dungeon. An Arena mode, where players are free to customize their character and play around with the game’s combat system, will also be available in the demo
Arco's development is fueled by a talented global team: Polish pixel artist Franek Nowotniak, Australian game developer Max Cahill, Spanish composer and sound designer José Ramón "Bibiki" García, and Mexican industry veteran Antonio "Fáyer" Uribe.
Arco is set to release later this year on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
