If you have passed Elden Ring and want more, these Souls games

Elden Ring An unlikely love for the games Souls-Like may have woken up in you and you want to play titles of this type. Especially if you have already passed all those of the Fromsoftware factory and want new experiences.

Do you want a fresh title that comes out of the dogmas that mark the souls? Well, you should know that there are several similar games that come on the way , and that you will be good to have on the radar.

For the most impatient, we do not forget to mention a game that was recently launched and that, in our opinion, is well worth deviating.

Steel Rising

Release date *: September 8, 2022 Editorial : Nacon, Bigben Interactive Developer : Spiders Platform *: PS5, Xbox Series and PC Price *: € 59.99 on console and € 49.99 on PC

Steel Rising immerses us in the Paris of 1789 during the French Revolution. The latter is repressed in the blood by Louis XVI and his army of automatons as ruthless as blood. Aegis, a being as mechanical as the King's henchmen, faces the king's troops alone to try to save the story.

Precision will be required, because mechanical automatons are endowed with great robustness and impeccable agility. You will have to chain elusive, stops, jumps and mortal attacks to continue your rise in Paris the best you can. As fighting advance, AEGIS can improve with a system of weapons and skills to choose according to your game style . Depending on your tastes, you can play as a warrior, bodyguards, mortal or even elementary dancer. Each of the fights can participate in several ways.

In addition to your combat skills, you will have to use common sense and ingenuity to try to make your way to your main mission. Consequently, we will have to explore carriages, garfios, secret passages and many other places to try to save Paris, plunged into the dark.

The developers promise a detailed map to explore, but it is not necessary to say that it cannot be as vast and complete as that of Elden Ring. However, all previous information is delicious, because Steel Rising seems like a demanding and complete game.

Why

Lies of P

Release date *: 2023 Editorial : NEWIZ GAMES Developer : Neowiz Games, Round 8 Studio * Platform : PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC

On this occasion, we immerse ourselves in the famous Italian story written in 1881 by Carlo Collodi: Pinocchio. It is a well-known work, in particular thanks to its cartoon adaptation by Walt Disney studios. While the novel was already dyed in dark colors, Neowiz Games and Round 8 Studio deepen even more in the dark to offer an even darker fairy tale title in 2023.

According to the information given by the developers, we will embody Pinocchio, a mechanical puppet that is looking for a mysterious person . Abandoned and abandoned to ourselves, many opponents will come to get a ray on our wheels and the only way out to survive is through the massacre. The developers also warn us: You should always lie to others if you expect to become a human .

In an attempt to find the truth among the innumerable lies that we will face, we will have to venture in a fallen city, formerly beautiful, inspired by Europe in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. As Elden Ring, Lies of P offers a multiple final mechanics , so a possible rejugability of the future title.

Being an automaton, Pinocchio can modify certain parts of his body to acquire new combat skills. But that is not all, because the improvements also seem to serve for exploration, so the world that surrounds us will be full of wealth. Whether for combat or discovery, combinations will have to be launched to find the set of pieces that work perfectly.

There was no release date at Gamescom, but it should arrive in 2023. Wait will surely be worth it!

Lords of the Fallen

Date * launch : 2023 Editorial : Ci Games Developer : Hexworks * Platform : PS5, Xbox Series and PC

The Lords of Fallen is a Soul-Like that arrived in 2014, but left sensations found, because he had good ideas but his numerous failures stared him. However, during Gamescom, the CI Games studio offers a new trailer of its title. The video broadcast during the event leaves players questions: Is it a restart of the first title? Or is it a new episode that will erase the errors of the first title? So many questions, but very few answers at the moment.

Although we know something. In fact, development teams offer an unprecedented epic adventure in an interconnected world that measures more than five times the size of the original; what seems to confirm our theory about restart.

The Lords of Fallen immerses us in an era in which the gods do not remain fallen forever, despite the lifting of the demon adjr. We will put ourselves in the skin of one of the mythical Black Crusaders to cross the kingdoms of the living and the dead to try to demolish Adyr once again. The fall is not an end in itself, because you can always get up. If you die in the world of the living, you will fall into the world of the dead , where your goal will be to return to life facing many abominations.

To achieve our purposes, we will have the option to choose between nine classes and our character must develop improving their statistics, their weapons, its armor and the spells of it. The developers promise a hundred unique weapons between melee and magic . If your mission turns out to be too complicated, it has a multiplayer mode! So we can experience a solo campaign or with a friend. Also suffering invasions of other kingdoms can also invade you.

But what do we do in the meantime?

Apart from Steel Rising, we will have to wait a long time for the other two games mentioned, since the date has not yet been mentioned. So, to wait, we recommend a game that has caught our attention: Thymesia.

launched on August 18, Thymesia is a Soul-Like that turns out to be very well received by the players . You will play as Corvus, a plague doctor who has the weight of an entire kingdom on his shoulders. In fact, alchemy has plunged Hermes' destiny, a previously prosperous kingdom, in chaos. Now, infected monsters roam the streets in search of fresh meat against the skin. There is no hope for a potential cure, the problem has become too powerful.

Corvus will have the difficult task of remembering past events in an attempt to restore balance, but as he finds elements, new secrets arise, but also new adversaries. Corvus is a being gifted that can master diseases that have turned the population into a monster ; Sometimes you can wield a heavy ax, then, when collecting another monster, you can equip yourself with an alabard. With a complete talent tree at your disposal, allowing you to create the style of play you choose.

Corvus is a simple human and faces fearsome monsters that do not flinch despite their attacks. Therefore, you will have to make sense of time; Become a crow to launch your feathers as daggers to interrupt certain attacks from your enemies that will be mortal if you fail.

To play it currently, Thymesia is a game that keeps you in suspense, with a good rejugability of the areas thanks to secondary missions that are not redundant for my greatest astonishment. Let's also talk about bosses, require great demands and have very interesting patterns to understand. Thymesia puts the concept of synchronization , because it will be necessary to hit, stop or dodge at the right time to avoid a devastating chain of our opponents.

The talent tree will allow you to create the corvus of your choice with skills that are equally interesting with each other, which helps to boost the game despite the lack of loot. In fact, you will not be able to collect weapons on the ground, no, you will have to seize those of your opponents and thus advance according to the enemies that surround you.

Even Steel Rising, Thymesia is a very good game that will give you a good dose of frustration, challenge and joy intense for the defeat of a Boss. Besides, it's very cheap! In fact, Hymesia is available on PS5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch and PC at the affordable price of € 29.99 .
