Banishers Ghosts of New Eden is an upcoming action RPG driven by difficult, Life Is Strange-style choices

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden.

In Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, a voice calls out to me. I'm playing through the beginning of Don't Nod's upcoming action RPG, where I find myself in the shoes of protagonist Red mac Raith, lost and alone. I don't know where I am, or what's happened to bring me here, but as I wander through a forested area, I hear the voice again. "Where are you?", Red calls out again, sounding increasingly pained as I'm beckoned down a path leading into a cave. There are no signs of life here save for myself, but a curious green flame ignites a hanging lantern suspended from a tree; as if to guide me. 

Making my way further down a rocky incline, I see the ghostly figure of a woman who seems to emit the same green hue as the strange fire I saw moments ago. It's immediately clear that Red knows who this woman is from the desperation in his voice as he tries to reach her. It's Antea, the love of his life, and given her spectral form, something terrible must have transpired. When I find myself in front of a small waterfall, the rings on Red's right hand - that are decorated with curious runes - also begin to glow green, and suddenly Antea stands before me.
