Gothic Metroidvania ‘The Last Faith’ Arrives November 15; Demo Now Available on Steam [Trailer]

Published

Developer Kumi Souls Games has given fans a definitive release date for their upcoming gothic Metroidvania, The Last Faith. Originally aiming for an October release, the team has now decided that The Last Faith will instead arrive on November 15 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch. To offset the disappointment, a demo is now available on the game’s Steam page.

You play as Eryk, a man who awakens with no recollection of his immediate past. Eryk soon discovers that he’s in a race against time as his mind and conscience begins to deteriorate. His desire for salvation from this affliction sets him on a cursed mission that crosses paths with ancient religions and divinities.

Explore rich, gothic environments in order to piece together the fractured history of Mythringal, and survive intense encounters against swathes of blood-thirsty enemies who will stop at nothing to put an end to Eryk. Use your extensive arsenal of of melee weapons, arcane spells, and long-range firearms to bring your foes to their knees with surgical precision, and invoke the mysterious power of the Nycrux in order to level up your attributes and stay one step ahead.

Much like Blasphemous (which had its sequel released earlier this summer), The Last Faith will have players weave between bullets, lightning and viscera as they fight against all manner of brutal bosses.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
