Retro FPS title Wizordum hits Steam Early Access in November, demo is out now
Retro FPS title Wizordum will land on Steam Early Access next month.
Announced today, the title, which is being developed by Emberheart Games and published by iconic studio Apogee Entertainment, will hit early access on November 15. A demo for the game is available on Steam right now here. A new trailer can be seen below.
A synopsis for the game reads:
The Ancient Seal of Terrabruma has shattered, unleashing the forces of Chaos. As one of the last Mages of Wizordum sanctuary, find the source of corruption and blast away spawns of Chaos before they consume the kingdom in a speedrun-friendly fantasy FPS, tearing a page from the spellbooks of ‘90s fantasy FPS classics like Hexen and Heretic.
The Mages of Wizordum are on the brink of extinction, falling to ever-encroaching mayhem outside the sanctuary. Sharpen an arsenal of steel and magic and set out for the Town of Grimbrook, looking for the Source while blasting off everyone standing in the way. Along the way, search nooks and crannies for loot and relics to solve mystifying puzzles and deliver even more damage.
Primož Vovk, developer at Emberheart Games said this about the title, which features a level editor for creative minds:
“When I was younger, I was captivated with fantasy FPS titles like Hexen and Heretic. Wizordum is the perfect combination of past and present, with old-school maze-like brain teasers combined with modern comforts for a smooth gameplay experience. We have much more to show in a few weeks, stay tuned!”
