Ravenbound Flies to PC March 30 - Hardcore Gamer
Open-world roguelite Ravenbound will be arriving on PC via Steam on March 30.

Ravenbound is set in the world of Ávalt, a Scandinavian folklore-inspired fantasy land on the verge of being overcome by darkness. As the “Vessel” players can fight to push back that darkness little by little as they journey across the world either on foot or in the form of a raven. Players will apparently have full freedom to choose which challenges and encounters to undertake, but there will be consequences no matter what they do.
