Gothic Metroidvania ‘The Last Faith’ Out Now on PC, Consoles [Trailer]
If you’ve got a hankering for a new Metroidvania, Kumi Souls Games’ gothic Soulslike The Last Faith is out now for you to devour. The game is out now on PC via Steam (with a 10% launch discount until November 22), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch for $27.99 USD. Often brutal, but always empowering, The Last Faith thrives on merciless and precise combat, with a huge range of melee weapons, arcane spells, and long-range firearms for you to carve out your own playstyle.
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. Use your extensive arsenal of weapons to bring your foes to their knees with surgical precision, and invoke the mysterious power of the Nycrux to level up your attributes and stay one step ahead.
Much like The Game Kitchen’s Blasphemous series, The Last Faith sports gorgeous hand-drawn 2D sprite art of locations ranging from dark, gnarled forests to frigid mountain peaks. And if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also be executing your defeated foes in gruesome detail.

Upcoming “Unholy Alliance” Update for ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Adds Local Co-op and More [Teaser]
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.
