Trailer: Mystical first-person action title Blacktail landing on December 15th

We first told you about the intriguing Blacktail not long ago, but the magic-infused, first-person action/adventure is about to land on consoles and PC.

Yaga Begins

You play as Yaga, a 16-year-old girl accused of witchcraft and expelled from her medieval settlement following the mysterious disappearance of her twin sister and life-long protector Zora. When living memories of your past return as foul, walking spirits, you are left with no other option than to hunt them down in hopes of unraveling your own mystery. Track them down with your trusty bow, crafting arrows and potions while gathering materials to survive in the ominous woods. Engage in thrilling fights against mighty bosses as you unearth hidden treasures and collect lost recipes to improve your abilities and shape your play style.

Focus Entertainment press release

Blacktail features a mix of combat and magic-casting, with a heavy-emphasis on story. A big part of that is the choice between good and evil. The game’s morality system will allow players to be either the heroic protector of the woods, or the wicked witch that Yaga is often portrayed as in folklore.

Make the choice when Blacktail arrives on Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC this month, on December 15th.
