TOKYO – 28 July, 2022 – LOST EPIC, the 2D Souls-like side-scrolling action RPG with fast-paced battles and hack-and-slash elements from publisher One or Eight and developer Team EARTH WARS, slice its way out Steam Early Access for a full 1.0 release on PC and Playstation 4|5.
Enter Sanctum, the land of gods. Here in this lush world, giant beasts and tyrannical deities rule over mortals. Rise as the God Slayer and free the humans from these shackles. Hunt down the divine rulers and their elite minions in an interconnected, Metroidvania-like 2D world featuring character art by Namie (Fate/Grand Order, Arknights, Azur Lane).
Square off with giant bosses in Souls-like combat where one mistake could spell doom. Earn Anima from each victorious battle to forge new weapons and expand the God Slayer’s powers through an extensive skill tree. Craft helpful consumable items, find weapon and armor upgrades, and go fishing to see what lurks in the depths beneath!
Tackle giant foes with up to two other God Slayers in online cooperative multiplayer. Communicate with visual-based stamps to breach language barriers: Version 1.0.0 adds localizations for Korean, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, and French, available today on Steam and coming soon to PlayStation. Work together to tackle the fearsome raid bosses in Sky-Reaching Spire, new post-game content debuting today with version 1.0.0.
Acquire defeated gods’ unique skills to explore previously-inaccessible areas, and discover hidden chests and treasures all over Sanctum. Hone the God Slayer’s abilities and use each weapons’ Divine Skill to to unleash beautifully-animated attacks with deadly consequences for those in the way. Still want a new challenge after slaying all the Gods? Conquer New Game+, where deadlier encounters provide new rewards.
Lost Epic’s PlayStation 4|5 debut includes all the content introduced since the start of Early Access on Steam for PC, including all six worlds, and the deadly Abyss, featuring the true final boss. Find The Eyes of God and discover new secrets previously hidden throughout Sanctum, with new challenges, bosses, and Transcended Weapons. Play as an A.N.T.I. Soldier from EARTH’S DAWN, who transforms the game with evasive Boost mechanics and long-range weaponry aiming to show that bullets are more powerful than Gods.
“With the launch now imminent, we are pleased to say that we have been able to include all of our planned elements into the game,” said Team EARTH WARS. “We thank everyone who’s supported us during Early Access. We hope that LOST EPIC will meet your expectations, and welcome to the PS4 and 5 players!!”
