Get a Glimpse of the Shadow of the Road
Publisher Owlcat Games and developer Another Angle Games have unveiled a new gameplay trailer for their upcoming turn-based cRPG, Shadow of the Road, during the Autumn 2025 Galaxies Gaming Showcase. The trailer offers a deeper look into the game’s stunning Japanese steampunk world, set at a moment of transformation where tradition and progress collide under the weight of civil war.
Shadow of the Road takes place in feudal Japan, a land divided by the conflict between the Tokugawa Shogunate and Emperor Mutsuhito. Within this war-torn setting, the game fuses Japanese mythology with steampunk-inspired machinery, creating a striking visual and narrative experience. Players will guide a band of adventurers through a shifting world where every choice has lasting consequences, testing their skill in tactical, turn-based combat while exploring the tension between loyalty, honor, and survival.
Each character possesses unique abilities that can alter the outcome of battles and impact the broader war. Whether mastering ancient powers or adapting to modern technologies, players will shape their path through a story that balances the elegance of old traditions with the drive of industrial progress.
A free demo of Shadow of the Road is now available for Windows PC on Steam, giving players an early chance to experience its atmospheric design and strategic gameplay. Those interested can also add the game to their Steam wishlist to stay updated on future announcements and its eventual release.
