About the Game

Sound of Horses is a story-driven horseback adventure that grows over time during Early Access.

Your journey begins in the peaceful Homeland and slowly leads into something deeper.

Create your own rider and horse, explore open landscapes filled with everyday life and quiet mysteries, and meet memorable characters who shape your journey.

What’s included in Episode 1

Episode 1 introduces the world of Sound of Horses and tells a complete opening chapter of the story, where everyday life on horseback gradually leads into the first unfolding mystery.

It offers approximately 6–7 hours of story-driven gameplay, with additional time for exploration depending on playstyle.

About the remaining episodes

The remaining episodes are currently planned to be released together as part of the full version, continuing the story and expanding the world.

Everyone who already owns the game will receive Episodes 2 to 4 at no additional cost.

The final price is currently planned to be around $24.99 USD.

The journey ahead

Starting with Episode 2: The Forest Guard, the story begins to cross over into the Other Side, a parallel world shaped by forgotten secrets and ancient forces.

From that point on, your journey will move between two worlds:

the familiar routines of Homeland, and the strange, shifting paths of what lies beyond.

Even as you’re drawn deeper into the unknown, life in Homeland continues, asking for your time, your choices, and your care.

Along the way, you’ll discover the unique horse cultures of each region, each with its own traditions, breeds, and competitions.
