Sci-Fi Adventure ‘Return to Grace’ Releasing May 30 on Windows PC. Restore an ancient AI and solve a millennium-old mystery in the upcoming narrative game.
Check out the trailer here.Check out the official website here.
Ontario, Canada (May 9, 2023) - Today, independent game developer Creative Bytes Studios announced that its new game, sci-fi narrative adventure Return to Grace, will be released on Windows PC on May 30, 2023. Developed by The Game Awards-nominated team behind The Vale: Shadow of the Crown, the upcoming title is now available to wishlist via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Follow archaeologist Adamari “Adie” Ito in the year 3820 AD as she embarks on a wildly dangerous mission to uncover what happened to the ancient artificial intelligence known as “Grace.” Adie has made it her life’s work to get to the heart of why Grace, once renowned as humanity’s most outstanding technological achievement, went dark 900 years ago. Alone and faced with limited resources in a perilous environment, this journey could be Adie’s last.
In Return to Grace, players will adventure through a retro-futuristic structure on Ganymede, solving puzzles and unearthing clues to get to the bottom of this great mystery. The game’s branching story paths and multiple endings offer literal and personal discovery for the player and protagonist and add weight to each in-game decision. Adie is joined by a cast of character AIs, making her mission lonesome but not lonely. These companions can support Adie with problem-solving and understanding humanity in this sci-fi setting. Adie and the AIs are fully voiced and Return to Grace features talent from Karen Knox (Far Cry 6, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate), Athena Karkanis (Suits, House of Cards), Alexandra Ordolis (The Mist, Shadowhunters), and Dick Terhune (Diablo Immortal, Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong).
“As a team, we’re incredibly passionate about telling impactful, character-led stories and doing the unexpected,” said Paul Caporicci, CEO of Creative Bytes Studios. “We were blown away by the reception to The Vale: Shadow of the Crown and hope that players will embrace Return to Grace, and its ‘60s sci-fi-inspired narrative, just as warmly.”
Key Features of Return to Grace • Sci-Fi Sleuthing: Explore, investigate, and dig deeper into Grace’s origins and its connection to humanity by hacking the environment • Me, Myself, and AI: A fully-voiced cast of character AIs joins Adie, providing humor and perspective • Multiple Endings: Unlock different endings depending on your playstyle and decisions
Return to Grace will be released on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on May 30, 2023. It is now available to wishlist.

Another story to play this month. There are a number of reasons I will get this when it releases on the 30th It is a Sci-fi Adventure, one of my favorite genre's. As stated in Ana's announcement this story takes place on Ganymede. We know Jupiter is the 5th planet from the sun. Ganymede is one of 85+ moons, discovered so far, and one that orbits Jupiter. It is the 7th moon outward from the planet. It is also the largest moon in our solar system. I have seen Ganymede many times throughout the years. That in itself has ME interested in Return to GraceAlso noted which is a nice plus: "Adie is joined by a cast of character AIs, making her mission lonesome but not lonely. These companions can support Adie with problem-solving and understanding humanity in this sci-fi setting. Adie and the AIs are fully voiced and Return to Grace features talent from Karen Knox (Far Cry 6, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate), Athena Karkanis (Suits, House of Cards), Alexandra Ordolis (The Mist, Shadowhunters), and Dick Terhune (Diablo Immortal, Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong)." The Developer, Creative Bytes Studios, makes mention of an earlier game they had success with, The Vale: Shadow of the Crown. The Vale is an Action-Adventure with RPG elements. They alo had success in developing Ember of Mirrim, a Side Scrolling Percision Platformer. They seem to be working on getting all the Genre's under their belt. Lets just hope they have developed another good highly rated game, this time a Sci-fi Narrative Adventure Between the story, the video, the pics, the voice overs and history of this Developer I am banking on a good play. Looking forward to getting on Ganymede and finding out what and the heck has happened to Grace Thank you Ana!
It's never too late!
