A Rite From the Stars: Remaster Edition is arriving on PC and consoles on January 30th, 2025. This fully reimagined version of the beloved classic adventure game comes packed with improved graphics, updated controls, and new surprises for fans and newcomers alike. Developed by Artax Games, the remake promises a touching coming-of-age story set on the mystical island of Kaikala, where players will guide Kirm, a mute boy of the Makoa tribe, through the ancient rites of wisdom, courage, and spirit.
A New Legend Awaits
When the stars descend upon Kaikala, they choose one child to undertake the ultimate rite of passage and become a legend. In A Rite From the Stars: Remaster Edition, players will:
- Solve intricate puzzles in the Wisdom Path by finding the right items and using them in clever ways.
- Navigate danger in the Courage Path by controlling Kirm and his meerkat companion Mirk simultaneously.
- Explore the Spirit Path, switching between dimensions in a dreamy alternate reality.
With over 28 levels and 15+ hours of gameplay, each path offers its mechanics and challenges, providing a deeply rewarding experience.
An Island Full of Wonder
Kaikala is teeming with life, surprises, and quirky adventures, including:
- Conducting a literal rock orchestra (yes, the rocks sing).
- Playing dodgeball against a coconut-hurling monkey (watch your head!).
- Escaping from a burning temple, facing a giant snake, and even playing a seagull piano.
The island is not just a setting but a character in itself, brimming with charm and discovery.
Multiple Endings, One Journey
Kirm’s story is shaped by the player’s choices, with six different endings waiting to be unlocked. The handcrafted Makoan language adds a unique cultural flavor, present in the dialogues, symbology, and award-winning original soundtrack that features over two hours of music.
Extras include:
- 48 in-game achievements that reward outside-the-box thinking.
- 20 collectibles to unlock skins for Kirm and his guiding star Hoku.
- Hidden mini-games and lore for players who explore every corner of the island.
