May 26,25

The renowned Spanish studio, MercurySteam, celebrated for its contributions to acclaimed titles such as *Castlevania: Lords of Shadow* and *Metroid Dread*, has now announced an exciting new venture: an action-RPG named *Blades of Fire*. In partnership with publisher 505 Games, this game is set to plunge players into a captivating dark fantasy realm teeming with enigmatic races and terrifying creatures.

The debut trailer of *Blades of Fire* has captivated audiences with its fast-paced hack-and-slash combat, distinctive visual aesthetics, and a richly atmospheric setting. Fans of MercurySteam's work will notice echoes of *Lords of Shadow* in the gameplay and artistic design, while the game's environments and enemy designs draw clear inspiration from the *Darksiders* series. A standout feature in the trailer is a mechanical bird, hinting at its potential role as a means for the protagonist to navigate the expansive game world.

Developed on MercurySteam's proprietary Mercury Engine, *Blades of Fire* aims to sidestep the optimization challenges frequently faced by games built on Unreal Engine 5, promising a smoother and more stable gaming experience.

Mark your calendars for the release of *Blades of Fire* on May 22, 2025. The game will be available on the latest generation consoles, including the PS5 and Xbox Series, as well as on PC via the Epic Games Store (EGS).
