Press release:
Tuesday, 3rd May 2022.
The UK-based indie games publisher and developer Team 17 and the Taiwan-based indie games developer OverBorder Studio, today announced with great pride and thrill that their punishing ARPG “Thymesia” is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) on August 9th, 2022.
As the mysterious masked protagonist Corvus, players will battle through the plague-ridden and blood-soaked streets of Hermes against the unforgiving enemies that now inhabit the once-thriving city.
Tasked with uncovering the truth and saving Hermes, Corvus will utilise mysterious plague powered weapons reaved from fallen foes and use them to execute devastating attacks as he overcomes seemingly impossible odds and uncovers the truth hidden in his memories.
For players wanting to test their prowess against the forces already wreaking havoc on Hermes ahead of Thymesia’s August launch, a Steam demo is available for a limited time between now and Monday 9th May.
Thymesia Key Features:
Weaponising diseases: Seize diseases from enemies and wield them as deadly weapons
Fight Your Way: Upgrade and modify Corvus’ basic movements and plague weapons to devastating effect
A dark and deadly world: With a sinister and gloomy backdrop, Thymesia oozes character through its environments and setting
Unforgiving enemies: Corrupted by the plague, and mutated into monsters, enemies are twisted and incredibly hostile, challenging players at every turn
Thymesia is currently available to Wishlist on Steam. To keep up to date with all the information on Thymesia please like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and join us on Discord.
