Silver Palace, Elementa's open-world detective RPG, is scheduled to launch worldwide on December 14, 2026. The game is coming to PC, PlayStation 5, Android and iOS, placing a single-player-style investigative fantasy adventure across console, computer and mobile platforms on the same day.
The announcement gives the anime-inspired RPG a firm release target after multiple beta tests and appearances at major fan and games events. Elementa says that Silver Palace has already surpassed 15 million global pre-registrations ahead of launch, while a milestone campaign is offering in-game bonuses as the community reaches designated registration and social-following goals.
Built with Unreal Engine 5, Silver Palace combines a Victorian-influenced city setting with detective work, character-based real-time combat and a wider mystery centered on a resource known as Silverium. Players take the role of a detective working alongside a varied group of companions, investigating incidents across a metropolis whose industrial growth has been driven by the unusual substance.
A December 2026 release across four platforms
Silver Palace will begin its global rollout on December 14, 2026. On PC, the game is planned for the Epic Games Store. PlayStation 5 players will be able to find it through the PlayStation Store, while the mobile edition will be distributed through the App Store on iOS and Google Play on Android.

Pre-registration is currently available through Silver Palace's official channels and the relevant platform storefronts. While pre-registration totals can be an early indication of interest rather than a guarantee of launch-day activity, passing 15 million registrations gives the game a sizeable audience going into its December debut.
The launch is also intended to be broadly accessible from a language standpoint. Elementa has confirmed support for 12 languages at release: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Thai, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian. That selection covers many of the regions where large-scale mobile and cross-platform RPGs have built substantial communities, while also giving PC and console players multiple localization options.
A metropolis built on Silverium
Silver Palace is set in a sprawling city with a Victorian-era visual identity, although its world is not simply historical. Its society has been reshaped by Silverium, a mysterious material that has helped fuel rapid industrial advancement. The resource is valuable enough to attract competing interests, and the struggle to control it sits at the heart of the city's tensions.

That premise gives the game's detective focus more weight than a string of disconnected cases. Behind the polished streets and glittering public image of the metropolis are conspiracies, factions with their own ambitions and secrets that have remained buried for a long time. The player's investigations are positioned as a route into the larger truth behind the city, its development and the people attempting to influence its future.
Rather than limiting players to a single neighborhood or a menu-driven detective board, Silver Palace emphasizes exploration. Distinct districts and less obvious corners of the city are part of the experience, suggesting that following a lead may involve moving between crowded urban spaces, uncovering overlooked details and meeting characters who are connected to the central mysteries in different ways.
The setting is particularly notable because it frames the RPG's action around an investigative identity. Many character-driven games use a fantasy world as the backdrop for combat and progression. Silver Palace is aiming to tie its companions, locations and fights into the work of a detective operating in a city where the central resource has transformed civilization while creating new reasons for conflict.
Cases, clues and companions
Players will step into the role of the detective and form a team with a diverse cast of companions. Investigating cases, tracking clues and piecing together answers are core parts of the premise. Elementa has described the city as one with layered secrets, so the detective's work is expected to move beyond routine incidents toward a broader conspiracy surrounding Silverium.
The companion system also feeds directly into combat. Silver Palace uses real-time character switching, allowing players to move between members of their active group during encounters. This approach can make a party feel more hands-on than a strictly turn-based lineup, especially when different abilities can be combined in quick succession.
Skill synergies and coordinated attacks are among the systems promised for battles. The stated goal is to balance immediate, fast-moving action with meaningful strategy. In practice, that suggests players will need to consider the order in which they deploy characters and abilities, not merely rely on individual power levels. A well-timed switch or complementary skill may be as important as the strength of any one companion.
That balance will be important for a game launching across both dedicated gaming hardware and touch-screen devices. PC and PlayStation 5 players may approach its action with controllers or keyboard-and-mouse inputs, while Android and iOS users will be playing on mobile interfaces. Elementa has confirmed the same broad launch platforms, but has not detailed platform-specific control features, performance modes or cross-progression plans.
Unreal Engine 5 and an anime-styled urban world
Silver Palace uses Unreal Engine 5 to deliver its city environments and character presentation. The game pairs that technology with a more refined anime-inspired art direction, instead of pursuing photorealism. Its visual identity is therefore likely to depend on the contrast between ornate, industrial-era city architecture and stylized characters, effects and combat animations.
The choice of an urban open-world setting is also significant. Fantasy RPGs often send players through wilderness zones, ancient ruins and distant kingdoms. Silver Palace puts the emphasis on a densely built metropolis: a place of industry, class interests, institutions and hidden spaces. That makes the detective angle a natural fit, since cities can hold evidence in their alleyways, businesses, transit routes and social circles as readily as in their more dramatic landmarks.
For players following the project before release, the game has already had a public presence beyond its beta periods. It has appeared at Anime Expo, Japan Expo and gamescom, introducing its blend of investigation and action RPG mechanics to audiences in several regions. Silver Palace is also set to exhibit at South Korea's Anime X Game Festival 2026, giving attendees another opportunity to see the title in the run-up to launch.
Pre-registration rewards and what remains to be confirmed
A global pre-registration milestone campaign is underway. The rewards attached to its registration and social milestones include a new 4-star character and 20 Simulation Shots. Players interested in receiving campaign rewards should check the available pre-registration routes on their intended platform, as participation and reward distribution details can vary by game and storefront.
There are still several practical details that have not been outlined in the announcement. Elementa has not specified a price structure, whether the title will have optional purchases, the exact content of the 4-star character reward, PC hardware requirements, PlayStation 5 feature support or how accounts may work between PC, console and mobile. The December 14 date establishes where and when players can expect Silver Palace, but its complete progression and monetization model remain to be detailed.
Even so, the core pitch is clear. Silver Palace is positioning itself as a cross-platform RPG where a detective's investigations drive players through a stylish city built on a dangerous source of power. With character swapping, synergistic real-time combat and an urban mystery involving rival factions, the game has a different foundation from a conventional quest-led fantasy adventure.
Silver Palace arrives globally on December 14, 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5, Android and iOS. Players can pre-register ahead of release through the official game channels and participating digital stores.
