Team17 has announced that it will be the publisher of the action RPG Thymesia from Taiwanese studio OverBorder. The game will be released this year on PC (Steam). The announcement was accompanied by a trailer, due to which project has caused many associations with Bloodborne.

In the story, after an attempt to ban the dark art of alchemy, a plague spread in the once prosperous kingdom, turning people into terrible monsters. Players will take on the role of the mysterious Corvus, who can “grab” the disease of opponents and use it as a weapon, as well as turn into a crow and shower enemies with sharp feathers. In battles you will have to “Combine ferocious attacks, choose the right moments to parry blows and dodge in order to defeat unforgiving opponents.” Users will be able to improve the characteristics and customize the character, developing an individual fighting style.

As the game progresses, Corvus will collect fragments of lost memories that will help to find out the causes of the disaster. The story will unfold differently depending on how the user interprets them. Several variants of the ending are promised – the outcome depends on the decisions made and the items collected. According to the authors, each playthrough will offer something new.

“We are glad that the players are following the project with great interest and that we got the chance to work with Team17, Said Thymesia Development Director Moon Lee. – We look forward to presenting the challenging world we have created. ”

“There is nothing like Thymesia in the Team17 portfolio, and we are eager to work with OverBorder Studio on this dark project. – Craig McCarthy, the producer of Team17, commented on the announcement. – We’re confident players will love exploring the world and putting their fighting skills to the test as Corvus, challenging themselves against the monsters. ”

The recommended system requirements include an Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 2060 graphics card. The game will take up 16GB of hard drive space. Thymesia will be available in ten languages, including Russian.

OverBorder Studio started tweeting about Thymesia in May 2020. Since then, the developers have regularly posted screenshots, concept art, and gameplay snippets.

Also recently, Team17 announced that it will help distribute the tactical shooter Ready Or Not from VOID Interactive. In February, the company released Heliocentric Studios’ co-op roguelike Rogue Heroes: Ruins of Tasos, which received “mostly positive” reviews on Steam. On March 30, she will publish a 3D action game with metroidvania elements Narita Boy from Studio Koba, and in May – an action RPG about sea pirates King of Seas from XNUMXDClouds.
