Press release:
The Austin-based (Texas, the US) indie games publisher Devolver Digital and Madrid-based (Spain) indie games developer more8bit (Luis Moreno), are today very happy and thrilled to announce that their lo-fi Elden Ring-like game “Bleak Sword DX“, is coming to PC (via Steam) and the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop) on June 8th, 2023.

Pure, thrilling and wonderfully cruel, Bleak Sword DX is a dark fantasy action game challenging warriors to fight their way through compact, cursed diorama battlefields in a series of thrilling encounters with wonderfully cruel creatures.

Newly updated for PC & Switch, “Bleak Sword DX” expands on the critically acclaimed Apple Arcade version with elegant controls, three new game modes, and multiple gameplay and graphical improvements.

Through twelve tense and deeply atmospheric chapters, heroes must lift the curse of the legendary Bleak Sword by striking down all manner of horrifying creatures across an oppressive world wielding fierce weaponry and powerful magic.

This striking experience is scored by award-winning composer Jim Guthrie, with sound provided by famed designer Joonas Turner.
