About the Game

Winter is fast approaching as Queen Freya’s army marches relentlessly on the White Lands. Beneath the shadow of that deadly war Elisabeth’s quiet life on her family’s farm in Vardhelm comes to an abrupt end as she embarks on a journey of her own. Join her on a quest to find her missing brothers as you explore an expanded Huntsman universe, one where you’ll encounter both familiar faces and new dangers, all while discovering the secret Elisabeth herself unknowingly carries.

Meet Elisabeth: Determined and optimistic, Elisabeth believes in fairy tales and happy endings--and is skilled enough with a sword to make them come true.

Meet Marcus: A staunch ally with unusual magic, Marcus’ path seems entwined with Elisabeth’s--yet he hides secrets of his own that might endanger all Elisabeth fights for.

Participate in An Interactive Story: Play through an immersive and interactive story filled with suspense and mystery.

A Distinct Visual Style: Explore the world of Snow White and the Huntsman brought to life via a distinctive hand-drawn macabre style with character designs by Abigail Larson.
