Mouseward Announced

Developer Finite Reflection Studios announced Soulslike RPG Mouseward. The title, billed as taking inspiration from 3D Nintendo 64 adventure games, is being developed for PC and available to wishlist on Steam. An early build of the game is also available on itch.io.

Mouseward takes place in a kingdom ravaged following a starfall that came with celestial fragments, which warp the world and revive the dead. It follows a royal mouse guard brought back to life and tasked with collecting celestial fragments scattered through the kingdom. His perilous journey takes him to rat castles and foggy forests filled with hidden passages, cryptic clues, and environmental puzzles. The real-time combat requires players to manage their stamina while timing their parries, dodges, and strikes against corrupted foes. Players can customise their playstyle with a variety of weapons, armor sets, and arcane abilities.
