From the makers of Heavenly Sword, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and DmC: Devil May Cry, comes a warrior’s brutal journey into myth and madness. Set in the Viking age, a broken Celtic warrior embarks on a haunting vision quest into Viking Hell to fight for the soul of her dead lover.
Scoop this up if you like the sound of a simple soulslike steeped in psychological horror and Norse mythology. Headphones required for the best experience, not just atmospherically but for story and game play purposes as well.
Just the combat system. Very simple, more like a soulslite to be honest. Timed parries, dark fantasy, and a death limiter a la Sekiro are what make me think soulslike, but you’ll find it easier and simpler on the gameplay side than most games in that category I think.

Excellent game with an impending sequel.
What makes it “soulslike”? This seems more like a generic action-adventure game like God of War or Devil May Cry, with an emphasis on atmosphere.
Looks interesting, I’ll probably play it this weekend.
