Trailer: Tough new Metroidvania Souldiers heading towards 2022 launch

The resurgence of the Metroidvania sub-genre continues onward, with Dear Villagers and Retro Forge Souldiers. And this one’s no cakewalk.

Soul-dier on

Souldiers wraps Metroidvania exploration, crunchy Soulslike combat and precision platforming into one gorgeous pixelated package. Players take on the role of either a scout, caster or archer, battling for freedom in Terragaya, a mystical land on the borderline between life and death.

Outwit cunning enemies, solve nefarious puzzles, upgrade your character, and explore every corner of a dazzling, intricate 16-bit world. Souldiers is a handcrafted retro-inspired epic for the ages.

Dear Villagers

Souldiers has no release date just yet, but is inbound for a Spring 2022 release on the Switch and PC.
