[September 24, 2024] –  SoulBlade Studio LLC, an indie game development studio in partnership with indie gaming publishing platform indie.io, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Kickstarter campaign for SoulQuest, an action-packed hack-and-slash platformer infused with rich Celtic lore and Arthurian legends. The campaign kicked off today, September 24,  at noon EST and will run for 30 days, concluding on October 24th.

SoulQuest invites players to join the heroine, Alys, as she battles to save her husband’s soul from the clutches of Morrigan, the Goddess of Death. Players will master a dynamic freeform combat system while facing relentless foes and uncovering secrets in sprawling levels set in a beautifully crafted pixel-art fantasy world.

Gameplay Highlights:

  • Engaging Combat: Switch seamlessly between physical attacks, magical spells, and powerful finishers. The fluidity of combat allows for a fast-paced, satisfying experience as players carve their way through formidable enemies.
  • Epic Storytelling: Immerse yourself in an emotional narrative delivered through breathtaking cutscenes, reminiscent of the fluidity and epicness found in Japanese animation. Players will uncover the secrets of a richly crafted world based on Celtic folklore and Arthurian tales.
  • Multiple Difficulty Levels: Challenge yourself with varying difficulty settings designed to test even the most skilled players.

The game has already garnered attention at major events, including IGN Live, Gamescom, and PAX West, showcasing its intense gameplay and immersive narrative. With the Kickstarter campaign, Pereyra aims to turn his lifelong dream of creating this unique gaming experience into reality.

After dedicating years to crafting SoulQuest, I realized that bringing this vast and intricate world to life requires more than I can achieve alone,” says Game Director Tomas Pereyra. ”SoulQuest is rooted in a genre I truly know and love—a hack-and-slash game inspired by Devil May Cry. My vision encompasses a rich tapestry of combat and storytelling that deserves to be fully realized, without compromise. Together, we can create a truly extraordinary experience that reflects the heart of this journey.”

Backers will have a chance to receive exclusive rewards, including a physical edition for Nintendo Switch in collaboration with Premium Edition Games, beta access, and more. Backers can also experience a brand new demo that was launched with the Kickstarter Campaign.
