1C Entertainment, a global PC and console games publisher, today unveiled its PAX South lineup of four highly anticipated roleplaying and strategy titles for PC and console platforms, giving gamers a reason to look forward to PAX South starting on Friday, January 18. Each of the titles has a unique hook and style that simultaneously embraces the gameplay strengths of classic titles while looking forward with new twists and innovations.
The acclaimed Fell Seal: Arbiter’s Mark (PC, XB1, PS4) will showcase the latest build of the new fantasy and steampunk influenced turn-based tactical RPG game, and the innovative Cyberpunk PC strategy game, Re-Legion (PC), will also be showing a brand-new build for the first time. The developers of the unique action RPG, Eternity: The Last Unicorn (PC, XB1, PS4), will present a new build and be available for interviews, as will the team behind the 2D Lovecraftian horror RPG, Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones (PC, Mac, Linux), which will be shown in the US for the first time ever.
All four games sit in 1C Entertainment’s sweet spot of roleplaying, strategy, and action with a focus on the features—and gameplay—that matter to gamers.

WHAT: 1C Entertainment is hosting attendees at PAX South 2019 to showcase four highly anticipated upcoming RPG and RTS titles via hands on play for the following PC and console games:
- Fell Seal: Arbiter’s Mark (PC, XB1, PS4 | Spring 2019) – The latest build of the story-driven, turn-based tactical RPG set in a fantasy world with a touch of steampunk will be shown. In the game, which is currently available on Early Access with a 93% “Very Positive” rating on Steam, players will control the Arbiter Kyrie, an agent of the Immortal Council tasked with preserving stability and order throughout the land. Paying homage to tactical RPG classics (Rock, Paper Shotgun compared it to Final Fantasy Tactics), the game stands on its own as a worthy successor, bringing a slew of refinements through thoughtful development and helpful player feedback obtained in Early Access.
- Re-Legion (PC | Q1 2019) – A new demo of the upcoming cyberpunk-style real time strategy game will provide a unique single-player experience. Played from a classic isometric, top-down view, the game allows players to become a prophet in a futuristic technocratic society where they can define their own belief system, convert citizens into Adepts, and upgrade them into fighting units to rid the city of non-believers. Belief itself becomes the game’s key resource, allowing for a unique strategy game with philosophical undertones—rather “like Syndicate with cults instead of corporations,” as PC Gamer described it.
- Eternity: The Last Unicorn (PC, XB1, PS4 | Q1 2019) – A new demo of the unique action RPG inspired by tales of Norse mythology and the mechanics of classic games will be available. Players will encounter lush locations and striking fantasy characters as Aurehen, a young Elf, who undertakes a quest to free the last surviving Unicorn that protects Elven immortality. Developers from Void Studios will be available for live interviews and playthroughs.
- Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones (PC, Mac, Linux | 2019) – A roleplaying game of horror, loss, and madness set in the strange worlds of HP Lovecraft. The game offers mix of rich RPG world building and turn-based tactical combat, represented in an illustrative 2D visual style that manages to be both quaint and terrifying. Developers from Cultic Games will be on hand for interviews and to curate the game’s first demos in the US.
WHEN: PAX South show hours; January 18-20, 10 AM–6 PM daily
