Publisher Freedom Games and Developer Sword and Axe have just announced the surprise launch of Dark Deity on Steam. The turn-based tactical RPG is available right now on Steam and you can purchase it for a 20% discount.
The game was revealed during the publisher Freedom Games’ E3 2021 showcase. Check out the trailer below:
Dark Deity takes inspiration from beloved tactical role-playing games. The game features thirty voiced characters from talented actors such as Kira Buckland from Nier Automata, Persona 5 Strikers, and Demon Slayer. The voice actors breathe a new life into classically styled pixelated characters.
The game also features 50 unlockable classes, providing a diverse crew ready for any situation, but if a character dies, they stay dead for the rest of the story. The game’s Grave Wound system avoids harshness of immediate perma-death. Characters taking actions near one another will bond and unloaction than 450 interactions.
Chip Moore, Game Director at Sword and Axe had this to say,
As fans of this cornerstone RPG variant genre, getting the chance to make our own take on it is something we used to only dream of. With the first IPs that paved the way for this genre going in different directions, we knew there was an audience out there craving something that felt classic but also new. The release is right around the corner, thank you to our community for helping us get to this point!
