Thunder Lotus Games, the developer of last year’s surprise indie hit Jotun, have announced that they’re working on a new Lovecraft-inspired Metroidvania title called Sundered. It features a similar 2D art style to Jotun, and needless to say, it looks absolutely beautiful.
From the Press Release:
Founded in 2014, Thunder Lotus Games released Jotun to critical and commercial success on Steam in 2015 and on consoles the next year. Building on Jotun’s success, Thunder Lotus took what worked from the game (the art style, the big boss fights, the immersion) and fused it with infinite replayability and the nonlinear action-packed gameplay of the metroidvania genre to create the studio’s highly anticipated sophomore game, Sundered.
Sundered is a horrifying fight for survival and sanity, a handdrawn epic from the creators of Jotun. You play Eshe, a wanderer in a ruined world, trapped in everchanging caverns teeming with eldritch horrors. Harness the power of corrupted relics to defeat gigantic bosses, at the cost of your humanity.
FEATURES:
• Beautiful handdrawn art
• Massive boss fights
• Dynamic encounters against hordes of enemies
• Procedural world
• Corruptible abilities
• Multiple endings
DETAILS:
• Action horror, replayable Metroidvania genre
• Single Player
• Coming to Windows, Mac, Linux, PlayStation®4 in 2017
RESIST OR EMBRACE.
