Focus Home Interactive and Cyanide Studio are working on a new Action/RPG called Styx: Master of Shadows, which will be released for the PC sometime in 2014.


CYANIDE AND FOCUS HOME INTERACTIVE UNVEIL STYX: MASTER OF SHADOWS IN SCREENSHOTS


Styx: Master of Shadows is an infiltration game with RPG elements developed by Cyanide Studio for PC. After many months in development, Styx: Master of Shadows can now reveal the very first official screenshots: here we see Styx, the playable character in the game, progressing through some of the dizzying levels composing the adventure.

Styx is a Goblin two centuries old... the very first of all the Goblins, he’s a master in the arts of stealth, theft, and murder. The depths of the miles-high Tower of Akenash, where Humans and Elves hide and protect the Tree, the source of the Amber, are the best chance Styx has of quickly amassing a small fortune and, perhaps, discover more about his true origins along the way.

Battle your way to the top of the lofty Tower of Akenash through immense and vertiginous levels that highlight the vertical perspective. You will complete numerous missions with various objectives as you climb up – murder, information recovery, theft of precious artifacts, etc – and gradually reconstruct the puzzle that provides the key to the mystery of your origins. The levels are open and the objectives can be completed in various ways: you are therefore free to choose the best way to proceed and the most suitable strategy to employ to achieve and complete your mission objectives. But remember you’re a Goblin: if your target is twice your size, or more, you're better off eliminating them silently… and in the back!

Hmm, that's cool. It's just Styx now. I hope it's completely different combat-wise. Styx was a really cool character from what little I've played and seen of him and when I was playing with him it did actually make me think, what if this would have been a more stealth-action game instead.

They should ditch that sluggish pseudo-strategic combat system with fake dept and adopt some trusty actioney hack & slashy philosophy that never disappoints. Something like Spiders' War Logs, only with stealth elements too, because goblin! Very Happy

War Logs had quite a good combat system in fact. Wasn't that deep, but it was better than many AAA action RPG's combat system. In fact, if Witcher 2 had better combat system, it would have been like War Log's.

That looks pretty cool. Didn't expect it to be such a stealth game, but instead another RPG just with Styx and focused a bit more on stealth.

New teaser:



The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

I really like the level design in the video. Far too few games takes advantage of vertical space, usually just superhero games for some reason.
