'Kingsgrave' Gets April Release Date, Playable Demo Next Week As Part Of Steam Next Fest - Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 2, 2024 @ 10:16 a.m. PST

Kingsgrave is a gloomy metroidvania adventure inspired by classic Zelda games where you gain more power and obtain new combat skills as you explore the fractured land, slay foes created by plague, solve puzzles and rebuild villages.

Prepare yourself to be a mighty and wise king – traverse different biomes, from impassable woods to scorched lava surfaces, solve various puzzles, fight against enraged souls that were once human, and save the rest of the living. Build up villages and bring the folks back to their houses to obtain new skills and raise your influence and power.

Arise, mighty monarch, from your prolonged slumber. A dreadful disease has struck the kingdom and taken away people's lives. Your lands have wilted, the rest of the subjects have abandoned their houses, and monsters created by fragments of diseased souls have come in their places, swallowing up all living beings. It is time, king, to awake and unite the fractured lands, vanquish the darkness, and lead your people to prosperity like old times.

The fate of your realm depends on you!

Greetings, kings & queens!

Publisher Alawar and developer Egg or Chicken Games have come together to bring to life the soul-stirring adventure of a long-dead monarch on April 17, 2024.

In the meantime, eager monarchs can add it to their wishlist and begin reclaiming their realm in the upcoming Steam Next Fest demo event between February 5th and 12th.

“When developing a game, it's crucial to focus on what players cherish and respect. Classics hold a special place in gamers' hearts, and we aimed to evoke nostalgia with Kingsgrave. To achieve this, we reimagined old gameplay mechanics, visuals, and gameplay, creating a sense of familiarity for players to enjoy a fresh and positive gaming experience while exploring the game's world and lore,” said Kingsgrave Producer Ivan Tesla.

Key Features:

  • Restore the Kingdom - Unlock new abilities by collecting resources, building houses, and slaying enemies to bring the smallfolk back home. The true power of the king lies in his domains and members – the more you restore, the mightier you become.
  • Banish the Shadows - Destroy the plague creatures to save your subjects and clear the lands of rotting monsters to bring life back to the wastelands. Sharpen your combat skills and obtain more powerful equipment to overcome formidable adversaries.
  • Explore a World in Ruin - Go through traverse woods, deserts, volcanoes, and other biomes in the handcrafted interconnected world. Solve cunning puzzles, uncover hidden paths, and navigate treacherous terrain. The path is filled with challenges and wonders, a journey worthy of a true king. 

Kingsgrave is coming to PC (Steam) on April 17, 2024.
