A Plague Story

Writer Team17 has introduced that its upcoming action-RPG Thymesia has been pushed again by a little bit over per week, simply lacking its initially scheduled August 9 launch date. The grin ‘n’ gloomy-looking journey will now launch August 18 on PS5, PC, and Xbox Sequence X.

Developer OverBoard Studio selected the push the discharge again a number of days after contemplating current demo suggestions.

“After listening to the group suggestions from the current Steam demo, we’ve made the tough choice to push the launch date for Thymesia again by a number of days to August 18,” wrote the developer on Steam. “We’re 100% dedicated to creating Thymesia the most effective expertise potential, and people few additional days permit us to do that by implementing adjustments and fixes that have been requested for throughout all platforms. We admire all of the help and love you’ve proven Thymesia thus far, and we will’t wait so that you can soar in as Corvus subsequent month!”

Set in opposition to the backdrop of a decaying kingdom that took its newfound love of alchemy only a step too far, Thymesia will see gamers don the masks of an amnesiac wanderer — the aforementioned Corvus — as they try and rid the land of its plague of monsters, demons, and different supernatural horrors, Thymesia hopes to seize the eye of FromSoft followers, providing deep and difficult fight in a bleak and hopeless surroundings.

As they progress by way of the land, Corvus will be capable to forge new weaponry from the remnants of their former enemies, providing one thing in the way in which of steadiness as they decide their means by way of the darkish kingdom, confront the supply of the demonic invasion, and maybe be taught one thing of the reality behind their very own torrid existence. Whereas Thymesia is actually a little bit extra low-key than lots of this summer season’s blockbusters, I’m digging its vibe, and can seemingly test it out for Destructoid come launch day.

Thymesia launches August 18 on PS5, PC, and Xbox Sequence X.
