Hades meets DOOM Eternal in Kill Knight, an ultra-responsive, arcade-inspired isometric twin-stick shooter.Kill Knight challenges players to master the demon within as they descend through the voids of an eldritch arena and harness a devastating arsenal of armor and weapons against swarms of otherworldly horrors.
Once a loyal knight, betrayed, and banished to the Abyss. A desecrated corpse inside reanimated armor. You rise to an eternal death. Branded Kill Knight, you have one purpose - KILL THE LAST ANGEL.
Players must learn to exploit enemy weaknesses, enact brutal executions, and weave through the Knight’s Arsenal to tactically manage resources - as they dance with death in the Abyss and take the fight to global leaderboards against friends and foes alike.
Kill Knight’s minimalist aesthetic and retro visuals pay homage to the neon-soaked arcades and shooters of the 90’s. Set across five relentless, hand-crafted eldritch arenas, Kill Knight embraces lo-fi brutalism and revels in the dread and dream-like ruins that surround your descent into the Abyss.
PlaySide Studios is excited to announce that Kill Knight will be launching on October 3rd on PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4|5 and Nintendo Switch.
The release date comes along with a first look at the voids of an eldritch arena and several new weapons you’ll use to take down the otherworldly horrors of the Abyss on your quest to kill the last angel.
