Soulslike RPG Riven Crown Announced
Riven Crown, which aims to bring a brand new breath to the Soulslike genre, was announced by Intima Leaf. The game, which will be released on Steam for PC, draws attention with its dark atmosphere and unique combat system, although it has not yet received a definite release date. The game, which blends the traditional action RPG structure with mechanics inspired by fighting games, is shaped around the themes of death, curse and rebirth.
A Unique Journey in a Dark Universe with Riven Crown
Riven Crown invites players to a dark journey in a higher dimension after death. In this dimension, four ancient civilizations that have established a bond with their gods have turned into monsters along with their cursed rulers. In this world that has become petrified after the catastrophe called the Great Sweep, the player’s task will be to break this curse and rewrite the fate of the universe. While each death and resurrection changes the player’s fate, a growing curse system will make the journey increasingly difficult.
The most striking aspect of the game lies in the combat system. Traditional action RPG elements have been supplemented with combos and a super bar system specific to fighting games. Players can summon the prisoners they rescue during battle to perform powerful attacks. In addition, the weapons and armor you use grant permanent abilities as you master them over time.
With the double kick system that contributes to strategic gameplay, players can break enemy defenses with light kicks or throw enemies away with heavy kicks. Using two different block types against enemy attacks brings about tactical struggles that require reflexes and timing. Threat level statues scattered across the maps offer optional challenges for players who want to reach more difficult enemies.
The game’s world is non-linear and full of mysteries. It takes place in a vast universe from ruins to magnificent city ruins, from cursed forests to hellish realms. The fact that some of the game’s secrets can be solved through the developer’s social media posts offers a different approach that takes the story outside the game.
If you like the Soulslike genre and are looking for something fresh in the combat system, Riven Crown may be one of the productions you should put on your radar. Although the release date has not been announced yet, the unique systems and atmosphere offered by the game are intriguing. Are you ready to shape your own destiny in this universe full of dark gods?
