At the beginning of June, we had the opportunity to try the first preview of Soulstice, the next release from Reply Game Studios and Modus Games. From the first trailer we got to see, the game caught our attention with its dark stylized art style mixed with classic hack and slash gameplay. The first impressions we had were quite good, although we were only given the opportunity to try a single level.
Now, two months later, the development studio has contacted us again to give us the opportunity to try a new preview of the title, this time much longer, since obviously, the title is getting closer to the final release. . So today we come to tell you about our complete experience, in this soulstice trailer.
A much more complete preview
As we have said before, the previous version of the game that we were able to play was very short, containing only one mission (although it did not stop showing us most of the virtues that the title has). But this time, the developer studio has left us much more contentwith various missions to enjoy and learn much more about its characters and its plot.
Not only is it a much more complete version because there are more levels, but it could very well be the final version of the game, since both the menus, the tutorials and the graphic options (since we have tested it on PC) are the final ones. Though obviously the little time they have left before launch will be used to polish the game as much as possiblethe result we have seen is quite remarkable.
The duet of the sisters is the strong point of the title
We already discussed it in the first preview: both in the playable part, and in its narrative, the strong point of Soulstice is the duo of the sisters Briar and Lute, something that the studio knows very well. Narratively we will not give many details, since it is something that each user has to experience for himself. But its gameplay shines a lot thanks to the possibility of having a companion who always protects us, being Lute, Briar’s “ghost” sister, an impenetrable shield.
Like many hack and slash, we will have at our disposal a skill tree for the two protagonists, and we will unlock the skills with the items that the enemies or objects in the environment drop. In its mechanics It is not at all a surprisingly original title, but what it proposes, it does in the right wayand it feels incredibly good to be at the controls of our Chimera warrior.
September 30 is getting closer
We can say little more about the novelties that this preview has presented us, making it clear that the work of Reply Game Studios and Modus Games promises to be a more than remarkable title, with which we hope to spend many memorable moments thanks to its dark and fantasy world, its history and, above all, its charismatic characters.
Now we only have to wait a month and a little for September 30 to arrive, the day the studio has decided to launch the game, which will be available for Xbox Series X | S, PS5 and PCso no one will have any excuse not to be able to enjoy Soulstice and live the adventure of Briar and Lute, the sisters, and heroines, of this title.
