During PAX East 2024, we spoke with Tate Multimedia’s Sean Halliday regarding the upcoming Soulslike from the Brazilian gaming studio Trialforge Studio, Deathbound.
Deathbound is a unique take on the Soulslike formula, as you take control of a part of four characters and switch them out at any time, just like gear. There’s also an interesting combat mechanic called the Morph System that provides faster character swapping, special attacks, and dodging.
For a better idea, check out my DeathBound preview.
There’s currently a demo available on Steam, so if the game sounds interesting, you should give it a try. If you’re a fan of Soulslikes, then you definitely need to check out the demo. Just keep in mind that the build is still pre-alpha and rough, but still playable.
There’s no release date for Deathbound, but Trialforge Studio is planning for a 2024 release.
