It’s a rich, rich time for Souls-likes, and that’s in no small part due to the continued success of FromSofwaret’s epic(ally difficult) adventures – Dark Souls and Elden Ring have captivated millions for years, and others want a slice of the pie!
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is a brand-new Souls-lite title that gives you all the swords you desire, but also throws some powerful guns into the mix.
Unleash the Gods
Now available on Xbox, PlayStation and PC – with the game launching day-one onto Xbox and PC Game Pass – Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn tells an epic tale of gods, as you have one very simple mission.Â
Playing as Nor Vanek, a member of the Coalition army, you and your fox companion Enki must slay all of the gods that have been unleashed unto the world. With satisfyingly brutal combat, mixing up-close and personal melee combat with the deployment of ranged weaponry also, throughout the game you’ll be honing your dodging, parrying and striking skills in order to emerge victorious.
Developers A44 Games (you may recall their previous title, Ashen) are keen to emphasise the focus on bouncy and fluid traversal, too: expect to be bounding across this fantasy world on your way to the next objective.
