Here is the premise of Crimson Moon:
Gildenark lies broken. Once the kingdom’s jewel, the city is now overrun by demons, undead, vampires, and other horrors spawned from Hell’s rot. Humanity clings to one last order: the Order of the Blood Moon — and you are the order’s deadliest instrument.
You play a Nephilim: half-angel, half-human, forged to stand against the infernal tide. Wield supernatural powers, mix weapons and melee, shift into angelic forms, and execute bloody missions to fell monstrous bosses — the Dead Gods.
Key features of the game include:
- Roguelike structure — runs are short missions with RNG elements (i.e., varied layouts, loot).
- Brutal combat with executions tailored to each fiend type.
- Online co-op for two players; run difficulty scales with player count.
- A hub area — The Church — where you purchase perm. upgrades and talk to NPCs.
No Russian localization will be included in Crimson Moon.
