A new role-playing game for the PS5 lets you become the notorious pirate. Although the first trailer does not show much gameplay, it can already convince players.
What game is it about? Flint – Treasure of Oblivion is a new role-playing game by the indie developer Savage Level, which is scheduled to be released in the fourth quarter of 2024. However, a precise release date is still unknown.

In this turn-based RPG, you take on the role of a notorious pirate and plunge into a richly detailed world:

Flint – Treasure of Oblivion also promises several features that belong to a good turn-based role-playing game:
- Prepare for challenges and battles by assembling a crew of various members with unique talents
- Trigger skills and attributes with dice
- Upgrade your crew with new abilities and increase your dice luck for greater success
- Explore the game world created with Unreal Engine 5, stretching from the French city of Saint Malo to Central America
With a dynamic comic book style, the role-playing game aims to narrate your journey vividly and uniquely. In the game, you will regularly see small comic excerpts summarizing your journey narratively.
