Source-derived summary

Omensight is an action role-playing game developed and published by Canadian studio Spearhead Games. It is a spiritual successor to Stories: The Path of Destinies and is set in the same universe. It was released for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on May 15, 2018, the Nintendo Switch on December 13, 2018, and the Xbox One on June 7, 2019.

Story

Set in within the same world as Stories: The Path of Destinies, the game centers around the player's role as the Harbinger, a mythical warrior who only appears in times of great crisis. The game's world, Urralia, has been destroyed by the dark god Voden after the death of the priestess Vera. The player is called to use the Omensight power to travel back in time and relive the day of Vera's murder again and again until the murder can be solved and prevented while using the Tree of Life as a hub. Preventing the murder prevents the end of the world.

Over the course of the game, the Harbinger comes in contact with four other companion characters who are the key to solving the crisis. These are Ludomir, an alcoholic but a powerful Rodentian freedom fighter and Vera's step brother, Draga, the studious and honorable general of the Pygarian Army, Ratika, a cool and sardonic magical bard and leader of the Rodentian Forces, and Indrik, the ruthless and impatient Emperor of Pygaria.

On her quest to save the world, not hesitating to kill any of her allies if they get in the way, the Harbinger discovers that Vera betrayed her calling to summon Voden, falsely believing she could control it, to end the war Indrik started in his own misguided attempt to stop the apocalypse, with Ratika catching wind of her transgression and attempting but failing to kill her, with Vera's associates who worship Voden killing her once she served her purpose.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Omensight”, the useful work is to connect “2018 video game” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q60755064. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2018 and 2019.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
