Lose yourself in this tale of myth and mystery. Selfloss starts its voyage on PC today!

05 September 2024

Manchester, UK – September 5, 2024 | Maximum Entertainment and Goodwin Games invite PC players to follow the lure of hauntingly beautiful mermaids and omnipotent deities into the mesmerising world of Selfloss today!

Set in a world between life and death that worships the majesty and strength of whales, Selfloss highlights the beauty of Slavic folklore and creates a haunting tale about life, love and loss. Players take on the role of healer Kazimir and join him on his quest to rid the world of Miasma, discover a ritual that might cure his wounded soul and battle with his all-consuming grief.

Accompanied by his trusty staff, which players can wield independently of the sagely healer, Kazimir wanders, fights, and sails through the wondrous lands of Yord. And he is not alone, a host of curious and magical entities reminiscent of key figures in traditional Slavic folklore will both aid and obstruct his journey. For more on what to expect from Selfloss, check out our trailer below:

This fall, Selfloss encourages players to embrace the old fairytales and allow themselves to be enveloped in the haunting tales of magic and mythology, as they rediscover hope in a world that once seemed devoid of light.

To celebrate the launch, Maximum Entertainment and Goodwin Games are proud to reveal that a percentage of Selfloss Steam sales will be donated to The Whale and Dolphin Conservation charity.

Console players will be able to experience the magic themselves this September 12 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. In addition to the digital launch, physical versions will also be coming to PS5 & Nintendo Switch with pre-orders available now at all good retailers including Signature Edition Games.

The press kit is available here.
