The infamous, sharp-witted goblin Styx makes his grand return in a third installment, Styx: Blades of Greed, a blend of stealth, action and strategy set in a vertically expansive medieval fantasy world.
The mission?
Steal Quartz, a rare and magical resource, while eliminating enemies with skill and precision.
Styx: Blades of Greed refines the proven formula of the first two games by making freedom and creativity central to the experience. Explore vast vertical environments and dizzying heights of the Iserian Continent and master new tools and powers. Whether you're discovering Styx for the first time or you're a longtime fan, it has never been so exciting to be greedy!
Be creative: Never has it felt so good to be greedy.
NACON and Cyanide Studio are pleased to unveil a new narrative trailer offering a first look at the story of the infamous goblin.
Styx: Blades Of Greed picks up shortly after the events of the second game. Having destroyed the Amber factory of High Priestess Lyssril, Styx leaves Korrangar, the city of the Dark Elves, and takes to the skies aboard a zeppelin with a makeshift crew. His new objective is Quartz, a powerful and highly unstable resource emerging as tensions rise between humans, elves, and orcs.
Relentlessly pursued by the Inquisition, a ruthless human faction determined to eradicate other races, Styx must secure the Quartz before it falls into their hands, no matter the cost.
The adventure takes players across the continent of Iserian, through vast environments rooted in a richly detailed medieval fantasy world. Locations include the floating ruins of Akenash, once the heart of the World Tree and now overrun by goblins and elves corrupted by amber, and The Wall, the immense fortress of the Human Empire, guarded by elite soldiers and inquisitors. On the far edge of the continent lies the Turquoise Dawn, a dense jungle ravaged by the war between humans and orcs, where hostile flora and exotic creatures turn every step into a potential death trap.
Along the way, Styx is joined by a band of outcasts, including Helledryn, Djarak, and Wren. Completing their quests rewards players with upgrades that enhance Styx’s abilities, tools, and stealth skills, opening up new infiltration options and allowing for a wide range of playstyles.
This new chapter lays the groundwork for the Great War and marks the rise of the Black Hand, the mercenary group whose actions later take center stage in Of Orcs and Men, the first game set in this universe.
Key Features:
- No more working for others! This time, our famous green-skinned friend is pursuing his own goal and leading his own crew.

This adventure marks the beginning of the Great War and the creation of the Black Hand, the mercenary group central to the events of Of Orcs and Men.

A wide range of abilities is at your disposal: Cloning and Invisibility return thanks to your Amber skills. Master Mind Control and Time Shift abilities granted by Quartz. Every situation is a stealth puzzle you can solve in multiple ways. Despite his small size, Styx relies on agility, sharp wit and biting humor to escape the trickiest situations.
Always reaching for the dagger first? Who are we to judge… No harm seen, no harm done! - Roam freely around three vast open environments: The Wall, which marks the boundary of the human world; the lush orc village of Turquoise Dawn; and the Ruins of the elven capital, Akenash. Soar through the skies with your glider, reach inaccessible spots in a flash with your grapple, and scale massive walls with your claws. Take advantage of the vertical environments to reach your targets. Every new tool unlocks previously unreachable areas with Metroidvania-style progression.
