Red Square Games Launches Action RPG Sancticide in Steam Early Access

Collect sins for Them at The Top in a melee-focused game set during the End Times

Warsaw, Poland – February 12, 2025 – Publisher Red Square Games and developer Sylen Studio are thrilled to announce that Sancticide is now available on Windows PC in Steam Early Access. The melee-focused action RPG will spend several months in Early Access before a planned 1.0 launch later this year. 

Based on Komornik, the celebrated Polish book series by Michał Gołkowski, Sancticide puts you in control of Ezechiel, as you venture through the last remnants of humanity during the End Times.

Watch the Sancticide Early Access launch trailer

The End is here – at long last! Nation states collapsed and went down in flames, brothers rose up against their kin. Instead of a thermonuclear bomb blast, all we got was just a damp firework pop. But worst of all, no-one actually felt like dying, even though the posters and flyers advertising the End promised Life Eternal in bright pastel colors. The system was to be so good as to be perfect – but only on parchment.

As a newly recruited sin collector serving Them at The Top, you have been given your most demanding assignment yet. Engage in fierce, fast-paced combat inspired by old-school arena fighters and modern third-person action games while you cleanse the world of sin during the apocalypse. 

Cross paths with a variety of enemies including Sinners, Debtors and Proselytes; the most fanatical minions of Them at The Top. Trust your sacred melee weapons, or wield unholy gear and leverage your environment as you try to outwit your opponents. Customize your character to fit your playstyle and harness Ezechiel’s Purple Powers; a divine force that lets you alter the very fabric of reality. Mix different combinations and skills and experiment as you learn, adapt, and survive the crumbling vestiges of our world!

But remember: how you go about fulfilling your task will make a difference. In Sancticide, all in-game items are categorized as either Kosher (acceptable for Them at The Top) or Unkosher. This mechanic dynamically shapes the player’s journey, influencing side quests, NPC interactions, enemy behaviors, and even accessible areas on the map.

Key Gameplay Features:

  • Puritanical Punishment: Engage in soulslike-style battles against saints, sinners, and otherworldly beings that will really test your mettle. 
  • Roguelite Runs: Each run in Sancticide is a way to uncover more about this world, its rules, and its hierarchy, allowing you to adapt, gain new abilities, and change your strategy and tactics. 
  • Keep it Kosher (or Don’t): The game’s unique Kosher system determines which in-game items are Kosher or not, and their use affects NPC interactions, enemy units, which quests Ezechiel can go on, and even which map areas you can access. 
  • Presenting Purple Powers: Wield sacred and unholy weapons, complemented by devastating “Purple Powers” that allow Ezechiel to alter time, an enemy’s perception, and cause destruction.
  • A World on the Brink: Experience an apocalyptic setting deeply rooted in biblical themes.

Sancticide is now available in Early Access on Steam

Red Square Games is also developing a “biblically accurate” tabletop roleplaying game, also based on Komornik. More information can be found here.

This culminates on the third day, where if players were successful in surviving the night must take on one of the Nightlords – new bosses for this version. Nightfarers must learn to cooperate to take down these challenges, combining their unique abilities together for an unparalleled experience in the ELDEN RING universe.  All is not lost for those who fall in defeat.

Bloodthirsty Infected Await: ‘Flesh Made Fear’ Coming to Steam Q4 2025!

[Wiesbaden, Germany – 12th February 2025] – Assemble Entertainment is excited to announce the acquisition of a new and blood-laced survival horror experience Flesh Made Fear for PC Steam, releasing Q4 2025. A masterful and accomplished setting where flesh-seeking infected roam the streets looking for their prey, where the quest for the living and the dead plunges to new depths!! All set in a haunted world where twisted experiments and occultist nightmares bring a new dimension to the genre, that will have fans wanting more.

Flesh Made Fear is the terrifying brainchild of Michael Cosio, a California-based developer with an unrelenting passion for horror movies and games. Renowned for crafting immersive indie horror experiences, Michael is the creative force behind titles such as Terror at Oakheart, Suffer the Night, Weeping Falls Massacre, and Meat Saw—all available on Steam.

Descend into the madness of Flesh Made Fear

Flesh Made Fear is a blood-soaked love letter to the PSX-era of survival horror. It revives the genre’s intricate puzzles, pulse-pounding combat, and suffocating dread. But this isn’t just a nostalgic tribute—modern controls sharpen the experience, immersive cinematics pull you deeper into the nightmare, and a relentlessly gripping story will keep you teetering on the edge until the bitter end. You step into the boots of a Reaper Intervention Platoon (R.I.P.) operative—a member of a covert task force sent to stop the infamous Victor “The Dripper” Ripper.

Once a brilliant CIA agent, now a deranged architect of horror, Ripper has transformed a forgotten town into a grotesque slaughterhouse, where mind-warped infected and nightmarish creations lurk in the shadows. Your mission is clear: hunt Ripper, unravel his darkest secrets, and survive his mansion-turned-laboratory of terror. But in a world where reality itself is twisted, the real question is—can you trust what you see?

Choose Your Weapon: Two Playable Characters

Players can choose between two characters to take on the infected hoards. Each character’s unique stats and story arcs add re-playability. Jack is a resourceful survivor, balancing determination and ingenuity as he battles through a nightmarish world of terror. His companion Natalie cuts through the chaos with wit, determination and unrivalled stamina. Together they face an array of grotesque creatures born of Ripper’s experiments.

Equip yourself with weapons ranging from pistols to flamethrowers, all with limited ammo to test your skills and resourcefulness.

And the Creatures…

In Flesh Made Fear, the deranged surgeon Victor “The Dripper” Ripper has unleashed a waking nightmare upon the town. His grotesque experiments—an unholy fusion of psychoactive torment and occult rituals—have transformed the townspeople into monstrous, mindless slaves. Neither fully alive nor truly dead, these wretched puppets lurk in the shadows, their warped bodies twitching with unnatural hunger. Their hollow eyes see nothing, yet they hunt with relentless intent. Every encounter is a descent into madness, every corner a battleground for survival. Can you endure the horrors that await, or will you become another twisted creation of The Dripper?

Gameplay Features

Modern Innovations Breathe New Life into Classic Survival Horror

  • Fixed and Dynamic Camera Angles: Experience the tension of classic fixed angles with smooth transitions to modern rail and follow cameras.
  • Limited Saves: Collect items to save your progress strategically.
  • Inventory Management: Choose carefully what to carry with limited inventory slots and safe room storage.
  • Puzzle-Driven Narrative: Solve intricate puzzles that blend with the story to unlock hidden areas and secrets.

Set to push the boundaries of survival horror with Flesh Made Fear, this visionary project aims to redefine the genre for a new generation. Stay connected for exclusive news,  trailers, updates, and behind-the-scenes content as this chilling new nightmare is brought to life throughout 2025 until its release.
