Check out the Release Date Announcement Trailer for YIIK I.V below to see the new content:
The story of YIIK I.V follows Alex, a recent college graduate whose life takes a surreal turn after witnessing a vision of a woman being consumed by an iron maiden. Driven by an obsession to uncover the truth, Alex embarks on a journey that challenges the fabric of reality itself. The I.V edition expands this journey into uncharted dimensions, adding three new party members, a completely revamped combat system, and a host of fresh features designed to deliver the ultimate YIIK experience.
You can explore ten new areas filled with inscrutable puzzles, strange enemies, and deadly traps. The game introduces Karta, mysterious collectible allies that act as the first line of defense in battle. You must strategically equip and synergize Karta’s unique passive and active abilities to overcome challenges in a reimagined turn-based combat system. Updates also include revamped dungeon layouts, improved cutscenes, and a restructured leveling system within Alex’s Mind Dungeon.
Andrew Allanson, co-founder and co-director of Ackk Studios commented: “Over years of development, my brother and I have relentlessly pursued our vision for YIIK’s story and world. We’re thrilled to have reached this milestone and are deeply grateful to our community for supporting us along the way.”
Accompanying these enhancements is a soundtrack featuring over 150 new tracks, adding depth to the game’s vibrant, surreal atmosphere. With support for both English and Japanese languages, YIIK I.V aims to welcome an even broader audience to its unique blend of post-modern storytelling and unconventional gameplay.
