Soulslike ‘Thymesia’ Set For August 9 Release on PC, Consoles [Trailer]
After the announced delay last year, OverBorder Studio and publisher Team 17 have announced that their upcoming action RPG Thymesia has locked in a release date of August 9 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. In addition, ahead of Thymesia’s release on Steam, users can check out a new time-limited demo for the game, as well as the new release date trailer, courtesy of IGN.
As part of the “Going Rogue Festival” on Steam, the demo is now live, and will be available for PC users to check out until May 9th.
Thymesia tells the story of a kingdom that discovers there’s a price to pay for dabbling in alchemy. The resulting attempt to stop its use has resulted in the kingdom becoming swarmed with monsters. The key to understanding and stopping all of this is in Corvus’ hands, but he has lost his memory. The truth can only be found within Corvus’ memories, but every time he dives back in, he only finds more secrets. In order to stop the monsters, Corvus must harness the power of the plague from boss monsters in his quest, granting him new abilities.
Remedy wasn’t done with revealing more of the upcoming Control Resonant. After dropping a new story trailer during Summer Game Fest last Friday, the developer has released a new trailer that offers another glimpse into the game’s take on Manhattan, as well as a mini-documentary offering a behind-the-scenes look at the game’s development.
The new trailer offers another glimpse into the game’s paranaturally transformed Manhattan, highlighting several of the city’s diverse locations, fast-paced combat, supernatural abilities, and encounters with the otherworldly threats reshaping reality.
Meanwhile, the Control Resonant mini-documentary features Creative Director Mikael Kasurinen, Art Director Elmeri Raitanen, and Lead Level Designer Anne-Marie Grönroos as they look at the paranaturally transformed Manhattan, discussing how the game expands beyond the confines of the Oldest House, introduces gravity-defying traversal and exploration, and combines melee combat, supernatural abilities, and reactive environments to create a dynamic action-RPG sandbox.
Control Resonant arrives September 24 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Pre-orders are now open, with players getting the Pickpocket’s Tool Artifact and Hiss Corruption Outfit for Dylan as part of pre-ordering before launch.
