‘Quake’-Inspired Dark Fantasy FPS ‘WRATH: Aeon of Ruin’ Arrives on Consoles on April 25

Published

Coming out of Early Access back in February on Steam and the Epic Game Store, KillPixel’s Quake-inspired dark fantasy horror FPS WRATH: Aeon of Ruin will finally be coming to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on April 25.

The story for WRATH: Aeon of Ruin sees players awaken as the Outlander among the ruins of what was once The Old World. Following the guidance of a mysterious being known as the Shepherd of Wayward Souls, players begin the bloody mission of hunting down the remaining Guardians of the Old World. Mow down hordes of enemies with nine distinct weapons.

Powered by the legendary Quake Engine, WRATH: Aeon of Ruin embraces the timeless elements of classic titles such as the aforementioned Quake, as well as Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Unreal, and HEXEN.

Equipped with weapons of exceptional power and an inventory of equally-exceptional artifacts, players must traverse ancient crypts, sunken ruins, corrupted temples and howling forests to bring death to your enemies. You have at your disposal old-school favourites like the double-barreled shotgun, as well as new tools of destruction such as the Retcher, a bioweapon that transforms disgusting cysts into deadly projectiles.

WRATH’s old-school experience is wrapped up with an exceptional music score from the mind of Andrew Hulshult (Quake Champions, Rise of the Triad, DUSK, and Amid Evil).

Currently, you can snag WRATH: Aeon of Ruin on Steam for a 25% discount until April 18th.

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.
