Nuovo metroidvania in arrivo nel 2023, sviluppato dai messicani degli Halberd Studios. Confermato su PC e Switch, mentre per le altre console non ci sono conferme.
Pixel art Metroidvania 9 Years of Shadows will launch for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on October 10, followed by Switch in Q1 2023, publisher Freedom Games and developer Halberd Studios announced.
This post initially stated that the game would launch for all platforms, including PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, on October 10, as that is what the press release provided by Freedom Games listed. However, the company has now said that the decision to delay the Switch version was a recent move by the development team, and that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions are to be determined.
Here is an overview of the game, via its store page:
About
For nine long years, the world has been submerged in the deepest of shadows, robbing every object and living creature of their color. Once a thriving civilization, the people have forgotten the warmth of the sun, the joy of laughter and the promise of a prosperous future.
Many brave souls have tried to venture inside the corrupting depths of Talos Castle, a long-abandoned orphanage from which the curse stemmed, but with each futile attempt, resignation became the daily fare for the people, all hope lost. Except for one person.
Armed with little other than her halberd and sheer nerve, Europa’s daunting quest is clear: enter the castle, find the source of darkness, and return color to the lands before it is too late.
