Experience an Unprecedented Audio-Only Adventure: The Vale: Shadow of the Crown Now Available on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation Consoles
The gaming world is about to be revolutionized with the release of The Vale: Shadow of the Crown on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4. Developed by Falling Squirrel and published by First Peoples Digital, this unique audio-only medieval combat adventure is making its mark on the gaming industry with its innovative and immersive gameplay.
Originally released on Xbox and PC in 2021, The Vale: Shadow of the Crown received rave reviews from Kotaku, who praised its ability to “excel at every turn.” And now, console players can experience the same action-packed journey that has captured the hearts of gamers worldwide.
In this graphics-free adventure, players take on the role of the king’s younger sister, who is left alone in a hostile land after an attack from an invading army. What makes this heroine different is her blindness since birth, which forces her to rely on aural and haptic information to navigate the treacherous and dark valley that leads back to her kingdom.
The Vale: Shadow of the Crown offers players a challenging and thrilling experience with its exciting quests and intense battles. The game features voice acting from renowned performers such as Karen Knox (Starlink, Far Cry 5), Samer Salem (The Expanse, The Handmaid’s Tale), and Steve Cumyn (Far Cry 3, Versailles), adding depth and personality to the characters.
One of the most remarkable aspects of The Vale: Shadow of the Crown is its commitment to providing an accessible gaming experience for both sighted and visually-impaired players. This dedication has earned the game a nomination for “Innovation in Accessibility” at The Game Awards 2021, where it competed against industry giants like Ubisoft and Square Enix. Additionally, The Vale has won multiple distinguished awards, including “Most Innovative” at the 2022 Games for Change Awards, “Best Narrative” at the Canadian Screen Awards, and “Best Audio Design” at the Canadian Game Awards.
The Vale: Shadow of the Crown is now available on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation consoles for $19.99. The game can also be found on the Xbox Marketplace, Steam, Epic Games Store, and itch.io. To fully immerse yourself in the adventure, stereo headphones are required.
