Publishers Digital Devolver and Good Sheperd Entertainment have announced a new top-down action RPG from developer Violet Saint.

It’s called Moroi and it’s billed as a dark fantasy hack-and-slash action adventure game. You play as a prisoner in a living nightmare, fighting for survival and escape from a twisted cosmic labyrinth while meeting the weird-as-heck denizens all with grotesque features. The game’s grimey aesthetics is meant to shock and awe, and it doesn’t disappoint so far.

Check out the features list and trailer below. Moroi will be out in Early 2025 for PC (Steam).

Features List

• Dark Fantasy Adventure: Descend through the surreal, twisting Spire as you recover from amnesia and slowly discover the morbid truth about your past and your hostile surroundings. Cling to your sanity as the very fabric of reality is unraveled before your eyes.
• Swiss Army Hack-and-Slash: Take on the army of undead with an arsenal of unorthodox weapons and accessories. You may prefer the quick slices of the Chainsword for large hordes of enemies while reserving the devastating blows of the Power Hammer for boss fights. Or go all-out and replace your entire arm with a fully functioning cannon. Mix and match to find the build that best suits your playstyle.
• Puzzling Paranoia: Test your resolve with a myriad of environmental and logic puzzles. In a world devoid of sense and reason, you’ll have to stoop to your lowest if it means moving forward. Solve puzzles by drinking blood, forcing regurgitation, and digging through viscera. Fun.
• Will the Madness Ever End? Designed especially to torment you, the Cosmic Engine will stop at nothing to keep you contained. Several playthroughs of Moroi will be required to experience all the game has to offer, from subtle changes within the story to the multiple fate-changing endings.
