WELCOME TO AHRA PRIME

Shattered Stars rain down across the horizon. A broken fleet lay in shambles across the scorched skies. The surface storms rage as cowering beasts flee into the caverns below. Your supplies are exhausted, your body bruised and broken. The path ahead is one of pain and hardships. Charon beckons you forward. Will you find your way home?



HIRAETH is an immersive single-player survival experience that challenges players to survive and explore the desolate remains of a forgotten planet. Only the strong can survive merciless AHRA PRIME.


You find yourself alone and out of resources on an forgotten planet that seems to be trying very hard to kill you. Scavenge for food and supplies as you try to piece together the mysteries of AHRA PRIME. The voice of the enigmatic Charon is your only guiding light through the seemingly endless abyss. Where will that light guide you? And what awaits you at the end of the journey?

HIRAETH features two distinct gamemode experiences that share survival mechanics.

• HIRAETH – ETERNAL offers a non-narrative, endless survival sandbox.
  
• HIRAETH – REVELATIONS is our story mode, with each chapter unveiling a greater mystery. Both will test your survival skills, however, REVELATIONS also features moral decisions with outcomes that significantly affect the world.

☵ ETERNAL

Offers an endless, pickup and play sandbox, ending only with the player’s death. Eternal mode will challenge you to survive utilizing your skill and cunning. As you complete challenges, you will be rewarded with skills that assist on future playthroughs. In-game notes can be found, offering lore and additional tips. Tasks can also be completed, such as repairing installations and accessing databases, that aid in your survival.


While exploring the endless horizon, you will discover environmental storytelling, hidden secrets, and unimaginable dangers.

☵ REVELATIONS

A fully crafted narrative experience that unfolds over chapters. Awakening on AHRA PRIME, a delirious survivor attempts to uncover the truth. Guided by a mysterious figure, Charon, the survivor must explore the remnants of the colony, delve into labyrinthine caverns, and survive the planet’s harsh conditions. How far will they go in the pursuit of truth?

CHAPTER ONE: DENIAL

“On AHRA PRIME, wise men speak
and fools decide.”



DENIAL is the first of many chapters in the Revelations. An amnesiac awakens to find the horrors of AHRA PRIME. With the colony in ruin and the settlers seemingly gone, the survivor must brave the harsh planet’s surface in their pursuit of survival. Charon, an enigmatic figure, will guide them.

UNRAVEL THE TRUTH…
If you can survive

EXPLORATION

AHRA PRIME features a diverse landscape, including mountains, coastlines, and canyons. In order to survive, you must traverse the hellish landscape, collecting resources and scavenging for supplies. Deserted Outposts and dilapidated bases act as markers, helping you navigate the seamless open world. As you complete survival challenges, you can earn perks that will assist in future runs.

PERMADEATH

When you die in HIRAETH – ETERNAL, survival free mode, your save and progress is reset. The wrong choice might cost you everything. The mode will also feature difficulty settings, so that each player can tailor the challenges to their liking.

SURVIVAL

HIRAETH features custom, in-depth survival systems. As you explore and fight, you must manage your oxygen levels, thirst, hunger, and negative ailments. Without vital supplies, nourishment, and rest, you will not survive the planet’s harsh conditions.

RICH STORY

Play through a rich storyline as you explore the world while trying to learn the fate of those who came before you. The full story will be released in chapters with the first chapter available upon release.

LIMINAL SPACES

You must traverse the world of AHRA PRIME for life-saving food and gear items, while avoiding the dangerous predators and environmental hazards. Outposts can act like temporary shelters, but when your supplies are exhausted, you must travel onward. Cowards will starve and the brave will become prey. Which are you?

CRAFTING

HIRAETH features a deep, robust crafting system that must be mastered in order to survive. As you find schematics and recipes scattered across the world, you’ll be able to craft items, food, supplies, and weapons.

Tools, workshops, and recycling stations will assist you, as will portable tool sets. Some tasks can be performed by hand, while more complex recipes require specialized machinery, such as a 3D printer.

FULL BODY AWARENESS

For better immersion, we have introduced a full body awareness system. When looking in first person, you will see your character's movements, clothing, equipment, and held items. This will also allow you to determine an item's condition, for items and weapons deteriorate with use.

EVA SUITS

The EVA suit is your lifeline and only means of surviving the deadly environment of AHRA PRIME. As you explore you will come across different suit types such as pilot suits designed for faster traversal or heavy suits built for greater protection. You can also customize your chosen suit with upgrade modules that add additional functionality and further enhance the suit’s unique characteristics.

UPGRADING

Upgrading your tools and equipment will allow you to survive longer and explore further. Shelters can also be repaired and upgraded. Doing so can increase the efficiency of its workstations or unlock entirely new systems.

PROGRESSIVE SKILLS

HIRAETH is not a typical RPG, but everyone learns something all the time. As you gain experience, you acquire different skills. Some will help you survive, others will speed up your work, and others will enable you to perform more complex activities.


After achieving some of them, you will receive them permanently, which will make it easier for you to try again - because you definitely won't end up with just one!

UNLOCKABLES

In each playthrough, after achieving certain goals, you can earn permanent Perks that will make tasks easier in the next playthrough. From the acquired ones, you will be able to choose which ones you want to use and later increase the number you can bring with you.


The simplest example would be to increase your stamina after walking a certain distance

FREE UPDATES

HIRAETH will receive free updates over time, including additional story chapters, an expanded world for the survival sandbox mode, and numerous improvements. These updates are free and accessible with the base game purchase.


We will not introduce:

• paid add-ons (apart from the already available soundtrack)
  
• paid content, items, world expansions, storyline - we want to deliver a complete product.
  
• However, we do not rule out adding paid cosmetic items. These items will not affect gameplay and are pending community outreach.
