Boston, MA – February 11th, in the year of our Lord
2016 – Phoenix Online Publishing and Overflow Games
today announced the upcoming April 26th release of epic action
RPG Cornerstone: The Song of Tyrim for PC, Mac, and Linux – a
sweeping fantasy tale in which combat, crafting, and
physics-based puzzle-solving collide. In the game, players will
join young Viking Tyrim as he takes on a range of wondrous
quests, battles unforgettable adversaries, and experiences the
adventure of a lifetime in Nygard, a legendary world of wonder
bursting with colorful characters, playable vehicles, and
open-world adventures waiting to be explored.
Featuring a complete crafting system that lets you build your
own weapons and gear, playable vehicles ranging from ships to
windsurfers, and dozens of quirky characters to interact with as

treasures, Cornerstone is now available for pre-order from the

online retailers. No word on a physical copy of this game at
this time.
The Viking men of the village of Borja haven't been seen in
years, and Tyrim is determined to set forth and find them: An
objective that will send him sneaking deep into the heart of
enemy fortresses, combing dank dungeons on a hunt for lost
artifacts, and actively taking the fight to the forces of evil
as he pursues an increasingly inventive range of quests at the
behest of numerous characters. Wielding the young warrior’s
crafting and combat skills, you’ll set sail on trusty galleon
the Mad Goat across the seas to uncover the world of Nygard’s
mysteries, collecting fabulous relics, uncovering forbidden
secrets and magic, and ultimately challenging a powerful ancient
evil as you quest to bring the Vikings home along the way.
“This is a game that started as a mere dream and expanded to so
much more than we could have ever imagined,” says Jonathan
Prytz, Lead Game Designer and Artist. “Now that we're here, the
game is done and we couldn’t be prouder of the title! We can’t
wait to see and hear what people think about it.”
“A refreshingly original and unique take on epic, open-world
action role-playing, Cornerstone: The Song of Tyrim aims to
transport RPG fans to a world of unforgettable fantasy
adventures,” says Scott Steinberg, General Manager of Phoenix
Online Publishing. “The game’s one-of-a-kind blend of combat,
crafting, and physics-based puzzle solving mechanics, and broad
range of playable vehicles and quests, invites players to come
along on an incredible journey, the likes of which they’ve never
seen before.”
