Fallout meets Elden Ring in open-world RPG you may have missed

Who would like to play an open-world RPG that blends the popular Bethesda RPG franchise Fallout with FromSoftware’s Elden Ring? If so, raise your hand.

With many video games arriving so frequently every month, it’s understandable that some titles may fly under your radar. The positive perspective from such a scenario is that we get to play a game that may have been patched to a better state than it was initially at launch. One such game that arguably fits that criteria, is Fade to Silence. Granted, Fade to Silence hasn't received rave reviews across the board but at the end of the day, we’re all each to our own.

Check out the Fade to Silence trailer below!

Developed by indie studio Black Forest Games and published by THQ Nordic, “Fade to Silence is a single-player and co-op survival adventure set in a post-apocalyptic world that is frozen in an eternal winter. Snow and ice have shaped a merciless landscape. Nature is corrupted. Monstrous creatures out of an Eldritch horror dream roam the frozen wasteland,” reads the description of the game.

“As the player you take the role of Ash, a natural but tormented leader. In that role, you explore a post-apocalyptic, frozen wasteland to gather the resources necessary to establish a refuge for survival. With dwindling resources, simple tasks like upgrading equipment and collecting materials quickly require an expedition to scavenge the necessary items,” the description continues.

“In the search for survival materials, you must navigate a vast territory, in which you will encounter Eldritch monsters and an even greater foe: the unrelenting winter. While freezing temperatures constantly take their toll on Ash, the deadliest event is that of a blizzard. If caught by surprise, it takes every ounce of skill, determination and luck to survive.”

Fade to Silence was released in 2019, and sure, that was a while ago. However, as alluded to earlier, hopefully, this survival game has had any post-launch kinks ironed out. Fade to Silence is out now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
