Despite its lukewarm success, Agony is now getting a franchise of sorts. In a new YouTube video (which you can see below), Madmind Studio is in the process of developing Succubus, a spin-off of Agony. The game will follow the Succubus that appeared in Agony in her quest for revenge over Baphomet.
Unlike in Agony, however, Succubus will involve the player being on the offensive. Rather than relying on the power of possession, Succubus will feature combat using “weapons and pyrokinesis”, an expandable skill tree, boss fights and “a system of weapons and armor that affect a player’s statistics”.
Succubus takes place after the events of Agony, where Nimrod (aka the player from the original game) has taken control of Hell, and has chosen Succubus as his queen. However, the life of royalty doesn’t suit the Succubus, who has instead chosen to live in the wilderness of Hell. It’s in the wilderness of Hell that the Succubus happens upon Baphomet, who with his army, are planning to usurp Nimrod. Unfortunately, the Succubus is caught, betrayed and humiliated by Baphomet. Revenge is now in order.
The game has no release range, other than it coming to Steam.
