One year after entering Early Access, Songs of Silence has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide. The game reached full release in November 2024 on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S, quietly building a committed player base along the way.

To mark this anniversary, Chimera Entertainment is offering a free digital giveaway: a special hero frame now available on Steam and soon coming to GOG. This limited-time gift serves as a small thank-you to the players who have supported the game since its earliest days.

"We didn't set out to break records — we set out to make something special," says Hendrik Lesser, President at Chimera Entertainment and Executive Producer of the project. "The players who joined our journey are the real achievement. This kind of growth proves that word of mouth still matters, and that a good game can still rise on its own terms."

Created out of passion by a small development team in Munich in 2021, the game continued to evolve even as many of the original members moved on to other projects. Its growth was shaped by a wider creative and player community—including artists, musicians, testers, and fans. Above all, honest player feedback played a critical role in guiding the game's evolution.

With over 1,500 "Mostly Positive" reviews on Steam (78%) and a Metacritic score of 81, Songs of Silence has quietly earned its place as one of 2024’s best-reviewed turn-based strategy games with real-time battles. Steam's rolling review score has stayed above 80% for much of the past year.

The game offers a story-rich fantasy strategy experience that blends exploration, kingdom management, and real-time tactical combat. Its distinct Art Nouveau-inspired visuals give it a unique identity.

Featuring a story-driven campaign, fast-paced skirmish maps for single and multiplayer, and hand-crafted standalone scenario maps that expand the world while telling its heroes' stories, the game promises to remain a vibrant experience supported by its dedicated community.
