Wield martial arts, secret magic, and ancient weapons to explore and conquer a vast interconnected world. Greater Things Are Coming. Click to expand... Click to shrink... "10,000 souls stand before you..." "Then 20,000 knees shall kneel." Click to expand... Click to shrink... Seek the Old Notes. Experience Creation through the eyes of the last living messenger - a warrior angel sent to carry out the will of the Composers. The oldest of your kind, Malach, has fallen to the abyss - leaving in his wake a trail of destruction. You must follow in the footsteps of his final days in order to uncover the nature of his fall - and in doing so, reveal the slumbering forces hidden within Creation. GAME FORMAT Metroidvania / Soulslike world! Creation is a sprawling and interconnected land of myth. Discover shortcuts, use keys, and search down hidden paths to unearth every last secret. Bosses! Creatures of fallen empires and heroes long lost stand in your way. Some require strategy. Some require weaponry. Some desire a duel. Others still, must be challenged with friends. Puzzles and Riddles - This world is full of mystery - get creative. Platforming - The way is often blocked. You'll need to find another. Rewards and Exploration: Relics lost to time are yours to claim - if you can find them. Exploration is worthy. Progression - Become a messenger of death as weapons are upgraded, spells grow stronger, and fighting stances reveal themselves. Campaign CO-OP & PVP 'The way forward is long and dark. You must be most brave.' Play alone. Play with. Play against. The choice is yours. SPECIALTIES 'This one is different.' Master close quarter combat like never before (in first-person!) Kick, grab, roll, and execute anyone who stands in your way. Expressive and powerful movement abilities! Skillfully pivot your slide around corners, down slopes, kick or jump off walls, and alternate between rolling or side-stepping in intimate duels. These are easy to use but will take time to master. PVP - Duel other players for glory in 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 arenas. Each weapon can be improved several times to unlock hidden abilities, traits, and catalysts. The Souslike 1 Hand / 2 Hand system is present, changing the attributes of every gun, sword, and tool at your disposal. Change hand forms to adapt your fighting style to the situation + hone your own creative playstyle. 2-Handing unlocks powerful abilities on the weapon but leaves you less mobile. Stances don't just change your elemental affinity - they change your entire fighting style down to the way you run, jump, kick, and slide. Each stance playstyle varies drastically. And every may take a lifetime to master. Spells and Auras can be cast to change the course of the fight. Each spell can be charged, and each aura can be cast in multiple ways that best suits the situation Powerful build-crafting opportunities between 4 ring slots, Stances, Weapons, Spells, Garbs, Catalysts, and more.

'Then we'll fight in the shade' But it looks interesting for sure  hey it's that dog Member Oct 25, 2017 9,529 Looks really cool and seems very ambitious. The team is only 12 people so I can't help but be skeptical, but hoping for the best.   BeeDog Member Oct 26, 2017 5,408 Looks cool, I like that they show it clearly and straight-up in the trailer, jank and blemishes and all. The enemies seem fun to battle, so hope this one turns out well!   Gabbo Member Oct 25, 2017 7,794 Intriguing. We don't get a lot of "sent from God" shooters, it just seems like it should be an character action game/ soulslike RPG instead of a shooter but the pedigree lead me to believe it'll work.   Vincent Grayson Member Oct 27, 2017 7,178 Mount Airy, MD I really look forward to whenever we get to move past "all dark fantasy needs to look like Souls games", because it's pretty goddamn tired at this point. That said, this *does* look like it might be pretty cool to play.  AgentStrange Member Oct 25, 2017 4,883 Finally! Dark Heretic Souls.   Biosnake Member Oct 25, 2017 14,302 The Dark Souls of FP games   Rolodzeo Member Nov 10, 2017 4,250 Spain, EU Meh, dark fantasy settings are getting old on my book.   Bishop89 What Are Ya' Selling? Member Oct 25, 2017 42,149 Melbourne, Australia Doom Souls Looks great  Satchmosax Member Feb 21, 2021 1,223 Looks very interesting, but the: "From the creators of [insert every game ever made]" really does not work for me lol. I get anti excited because of it.  DoubleTake Member Oct 25, 2017 6,951 Im in just to see if a developer can actually make 1st Person combat as engaging as 3rd Person for me. The gameplay details in the OP sound very promising. The fact that its former competitive FPS devs has me hopeful that the PVP will be decent as well. Wishlisted.   Zukkoyaki Member Oct 25, 2017 14,111 This looks awesome   HemoGoblin Member Nov 3, 2017 1,033 Seems cool. If it's good I hope they put it on consoles.   y0shizawa Member May 3, 2021 627 Looking forward to trying this   Faces of Death Member Oct 25, 2017 1,984 Rolodzeo said: Meh, dark fantasy settings are getting old on my book. Click to expand... Click to shrink... Nope. Not nearly enough of them.  SweetBellic Member Oct 28, 2017 4,832 That got my attention. The marriage of the FPS, Souls-like, Metroidvania genres feels like something that's been a long time coming. Wishlisted!   Messofanego Member Oct 25, 2017 29,359 UK This looks way more interesting than Witchfire and hopefully not made by chuds like that one.   Juraash Member Oct 25, 2017 6,714 The art is pretty damn slick, so that has my interest. Gameplay seemed... interesting, definitely will want to see more of that.   dodo Member Oct 27, 2017 4,251 Gameplay looks kinda fun but "10,000 souls stand before you..." "then 20,000 knees shall kneel." made me laugh out loud   dude Member Oct 25, 2017 5,045 Tel Aviv This looks amazing. Very interested.   Mr.Deadshot Member Oct 27, 2017 22,796 First Person Dark Souls? Every enemy will feel like Marauders in Doom? Well, we will see. Crazy that Amid Evil is still the gold standard for Fantasy FPS.  OP OP Deleted member 151830 Jun 25, 2023 7,173 dodo said: Gameplay looks kinda fun but "10,000 souls stand before you..."

I think I have a couple of friends who might be into it   Wil Grieve Member Oct 25, 2017 8,784 Bioshock Souls   DJwest Member Oct 26, 2017 7,798 This was all over the place. Meh   HStallion Member Oct 25, 2017 69,203 Looks pretty cool but this for sure like game meant to be played with a keyboard and mouse. I imagine those crazy fast hectic first person battles with constant movement and split second aiming will be a but of a nightmare with a controller.   Indelible Member Oct 27, 2017 16,735 Canada Looks really interesting, added to the wishlist.   sn00zer Member Feb 28, 2018 7,154 If someone figured out how to make a new Painkiller I am very interested.   Clowns Member Oct 25, 2017 8,203 huh looks interes- Mr.Deadshot said: First Person Dark Souls?

Lots of quick cuts of monochromatic scenes while narration drones on with unintelligible gibberish. It's a thing, but it doesn't really do anything for me.   skeezx Member Oct 27, 2017 23,390 kinda sorta what I thought Witchfire would be when first announced. then it was this weird roguelike/extraction type thing (not bad, but not really what I wanted) will keep an eye out. honestly surprised there aren't more than a handful for dark fantasy FPSs right now (outside the indie scene at least)  WandererJ Member May 16, 2024 1,227 Pretty sold on the concept, on the gameplay, not so much...  Doctor Doggo Member Oct 25, 2017 3,035 Looks awesome, based off the trailer. Whether it coalesces to a good game, we'll see. Wishlisted to keep my eye on it.   bounchfx Member Oct 25, 2017 7,638 Muricas Looks too good to be true. Definitely looking forward to it after seeing that trailer. Hope it hits hard.   Toriko Member Dec 29, 2017 8,843 Looks okay I guess. Although No console version no buy.   Mochi Avenger Oct 25, 2017 1,919 Seattle This looks cool. Hopeful it all comes together!   Supreme Leader Galahad ▲ Legend ▲ Member Oct 27, 2017 2,763 Brazil Hold up, they might be cooking here…   Bede-x Member Oct 25, 2017 11,786 FPS, interconnected world, Metroidvania.. It looks like Dark Souls as a FPS, I'm so in.   Soapbox Member Oct 28, 2017 33,064 The voice over sounds very Elden Ring   Vasilisk Witcher Member Oct 28, 2017 1,140 The trailer look pretty good, a mix of Soulslike gameplay and exploration with Doom (2016 foward) gameplay it is reaaally my alley.
