- Жанна д’Арк итальянского уезда: Обзор 1348: Ex Voto - 13 March 2026
История про похождения девушки-рыцаря из средневековой Италии, которая спасает свою подругу, угодившую в лапы бандитов, не на шутку взбудоражила консервативную прослойку фанатов видеоигр. Однако иногда подруга оказывается просто подругой, а рассказ про бой-бабу – красивой легендой. Во всяком случае, так утверждают сценаристы 1348: Ex Voto , в которой через путешествие в поисках мести транслируются представления о доблести и чести в хаосе темных веков.
- 2026's "lesbian knight game," 1348 Ex Voto, is short on lesbians - 12 March 2026
I've got a bone to pick with the internet. Specifically, the corner of the internet that's very angry 1348 Ex Voto exists. You see, all this time I've been unironically referring to it by its alternative title, coined by its earliest detractors: "the lesbian knight game." It's a neat shorthand for a story-driven action-adventure that doesn't have the most memorable name. It's also wildly inaccurate. Read the rest of the story...

- From Concept to Screen: The Art of 1348 Ex Voto - 9 March 2026
Every moment you spend in the game, every emotion you feel while discovering the story, every in-game art or background you admire – It all started with a sketch and a concept idea.Creating the fictive world of 1348 Ex Voto meant more than just recreating 14th-century Italy. It meant breathing life into a miserable world based on historical fiction. The careful balance of creativity and accuracy. The art needed to carry the weight of the world falling apart, the humanity of characters fighting impossible odds, and the brutal beauty of a land consumed by plague and violence. Aeta: The Rebel Noble"For her outfit we aimed to create a “travelling knight”. The red cape was there from the start, as well as the armour parts — which were then reduced to make her feel more agile. We then focused on what she would carry on her back, which to us was fundamental to convey the fact that she was on a…

- Who Are Aeta and Bianca? The Story Behind 1348 Ex Voto - 26 February 2026
Ash drifts down as smoke from distant pyres stains the morning sky. Church bells toll through abandoned streets, their heavy notes echoing a world in turmoil.In 1348, life is tough. The plague spreads across the countryside, bandits roam the roads, and surviving takes more than just strength. At the center of our story are two people whose lives become tangled: Aeta and Bianca.Aeta is the only child of a noble family, raised with tales of chivalry and honor. Unlike many in her position, she refuses to accept a fate limited by gender or birthright. With her father's support, she learns swordsmanship and dreams of becoming a knight, driven by a strong desire to help those in need. Brave and idealistic, she sees knighthood not just as a title but as a true calling.Photo by u/Great-Dimension_6619 (reddit)Bianca comes from a very different Italy. Born into poverty, she has worked as a servan…
