Child of Light: Ultimate

Fairy Tale RPG Adventure in Verse

Child of Light: Ultimate Edition transports players into a storybook world where every line of dialogue flows in verse and rhyme. This RPG from Ubisoft Montreal uses the UbiArt Framework to create a living painting aesthetic, following young Aurora as she awakens in the mystical land of Lemuria. The Ultimate Edition bundles the complete adventure with seven additional content packs.

Exploring the Hand-Painted World of Lemuria

Lemuria unfolds as a vast continent filled with talking mice, forest spirits, wicked witches, and sea serpents. Each location feels carefully illustrated, from iconic landmarks to hidden dungeons that transform as Aurora recovers the stolen celestial lights. The world invites exploration through its painterly environments that blur the line between interactive game and animated artwork.

Active-Time Battle System with Firefly Companion

Combat revolves around an Active-Time Battle System where timing determines turn order and strategic interruptions. Aurora fights alongside Igniculus, a helpful firefly who can blind enemies, heal party members, and collect items during battle. The system rewards careful planning as players build their party and navigate skill trees for each character they recruit.

Drop-In Cooperative Multiplayer

A second player can join seamlessly as Igniculus without disrupting the single-player experience. This co-op multiplayer lets friends assist with puzzle-solving, combat support, and exploration at any time. The firefly's abilities become more dynamic with human control, adding tactical depth to encounters while maintaining the story's focus on Aurora's journey.

Seven Additional Content Packs Included

The Ultimate Edition contains substantial bonus content through seven themed packs. These include The Golem's Plight Pack with new quests, Aurora customization options through Light and Dark Aurora packs, and various Oculi enhancement sets like Rough, Tumbled, and Faceted varieties. The Stardust Pack rounds out the collection with additional cosmetic and gameplay elements.

Quest to Restore Sun, Moon, and Stars

Aurora's central mission drives players through interconnected regions as she seeks to return the stolen celestial bodies to Lemuria's sky. The narrative maintains its poetic structure throughout, creating a consistent fairy tale atmosphere that distinguishes it from traditional fantasy RPGs. Each recovered light opens new areas and reveals more about the kingdom's mysterious plight.

PC Platform Performance and Accessibility

The PC version takes full advantage of the UbiArt Framework's scalable rendering, delivering smooth performance across various hardware configurations. Mouse and keyboard controls adapt well to the platforming elements, while gamepad support provides the intended console-style experience for those who prefer it.
