Press release:
TOKYO – April 20, 2023.
“LOST EPIC“, the 2D Souls-like side-scrolling action RPG with fast-paced battles and hack-and-slash elements from publisher One or Eight and developer Team EARTH WARS, is now available for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop.

The tyrannical inhabitants of Sanctum deserve neither praise nor honor. Darken eternal deities’ doorstep as the God Slayer and destroy their sacred dwelling places to bring peace back to humanity. Bring gods to their knees in an unholy journey through a Metroidvania-like 2D world featuring character art by Namie (Fate/Grand Order, Arknights, Azur Lane).

Carve a path through legions of enemies, wrestling Anima from their remains to upgrade attack power and gear. Outfit the God Slayer with dozens of weapons and magic abilities, and embrace numerous playstyles with an extensive skill tree. Make eternal beings question their mortality with beautifully-animated Divine Skills dealing massive levels of damage, and lay waste to the Pantheon of Six to absorb their godlike powers.

Venture heavenward while navigating through six worlds, each a labyrinth protected by wicked minions. Circle back to previously-unreachable heights and depths with newfound powers to unlock secret areas full of valuable loot. Scour the corners of Sanctum in search of side quests, and encounter the Elite for epic boss battles yielding powerful rewards on the path to redemption. Craft healing and debuff items to prolong battles against near-invincible foes, and go fishing in heavenly waters for additional sustenance.

Bear humanity’s burden with a partner in online cooperative multiplayer, and communicate with a heavenly language using visual-based stamps to overcome language barriers. Tackle raid bosses in Sky-Reaching Spire, and up the ante with New Game+ to unlock new rewards while basking in the glorious original soundtrack now available on Spotify, iTunes, and other music platforms.

LOST EPIC’s launch on Nintendo will feature all content introduced since the start of Early Access on Steam for PC, including the 1.01.7 update. Venture through all six worlds, the true final boss in the Abyss, new secrets, and Transcended weapons. Experience Sanctum in with new gameplay mechanics as an A.N.T.I. Soldier from EARTH’S DAWN, and slay gods from a distance using long-range weaponry.

To commemorate the release of LOST EPIC on Nintendo Switch, EARTH WARS boasts a special 55% off sale until May 9th, 2023 at 11:59 PM PT.

“Our community has been asking that we bring LOST EPIC to the Nintendo Switch, and we’re happy to have been able to fulfill their request,” said Team EARTH WARS.

“We are forever thankful for your support, and we look forward to a fresh group of slayers beginning their own epic journeys. See you in Sanctum!”

LOST EPIC is now available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Playstation 5, and Steam for Windows PC for $19.99. The LOST EPIC original soundtrack is available for purchase on Spotify and iTunes, and the digital artbook and soundtrack are available as part of the Premium Edition on PlayStation and as separate DLC for Steam.
