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.

While out fighting for the glory of your kingdom, you and your fellow soldiers are whisked away to Terragaya, a mystical land on the fringes of the afterlife. Your task is to locate the Guardian and move on to the next world. The hitch? You and your compatriots never actually died.

Battle your way to the heart of the mystery: 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.


"Retro Forge was born out of a love for all things classic and nostalgic," said Alberto Hernández, creative director at Retro Forge. "Souldiers is like our personal tribute to the games we all grew up with. I can’t wait for more people to see it!"

"Souldiers is shaping up to be a super special part of our catalogue," said Guillaume Jamet, head of publishing at Dear Villagers. ‘It’s beautiful and engrossing. I feel very fortunate to be working with such talented folks."

Key Features:

  • Choose Your Class: Unleash the fury of your sword with the scout, summon the wrath of elements with the caster, or rain down arrows on your foes with the archer.
  • Gripping Combat: Slash, parry and dodge your way through an ever-evolving roster of enemies, upgrading your skills and equipment to find a combat style that’s perfect for you.
  • An Interconnected World: Discover a sprawling handcrafted landscape filled with treasures, tough-as-nails bosses and secret pathways.
  • 16-Bit Sensation: Terragaya comes to life with vibrant world-class pixel art packed to the brim with details.
  • Smart Moves: Solve environmental puzzles and leap from place to place using an ever-expanding moveset.

Souldiers is coming to Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam) in Spring 2022.
