Lords Of Exile Released On Consoles And PC

Publishers PID Games and PixelHeart and developer Squidbit Works have brought to life Lords Of Exile, an 8-bit-styled sidescrolling action platformer now available for modern consoles and the PC.

You play as either Gabriel or Lyria, cursed knights from the Far East who are fighting to save the Lands of Exilia from invading samurai and hideous monsters. Each boss you defeat will earn them a power-up that will let them take on the next set of challenges, but that won’t make things easy. Two additional game modes, Speedrunner and Bosh Rush, are unlockable after you beat the game as Gabriel.

“I can say that I feel very good and proud of the work done,” says Carlos Azuaga, creator of Lords Of Exile. “I deeply appreciate the support received, which morally gave me the necessary energy to conclude this experience. It has always been my dream; I enjoy video games a lot, but creating my own as an independent developer was a challenge. Although difficult, I demonstrated that it is not impossible. In summary, it’s all about putting in a lot of effort and remembering that the goal arrives someday.”

• Levels : Explore 8 levels of classic linear design, each featuring challenging obstacles and enemies to overcome. At the end of each level, you’ll face off against a powerful boss that will put your skills to the test.
• Gameplay Variety : Experience a range of mechanics, from throwing weapons to melee combat, down stabs, jumping, and dashing. Unlock the powers of Gabriel’s curse to enhance your abilities. Play as both Gabriel and Lyria, each offering a unique and distinct gameplay experience for endless replayability.
• Retro-aesthetic and sound design : Relive the glory days of classic gaming with retro-inspired 16-bit physics and perfectly polished controls. The game’s stunning handcrafted 8-bit pixel art and fast anime-style animations, the 8-bit SFX and OST, enriched with sounds from the Megadrive sound chip, complete the immersive retro experience.

You can find Lords Of Exile starting today on Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch, XBox Series X|S, XBox One and PC.
