Confront The Church of Death in the Upcoming Soulslike, Deathbound

Refused by death, how does one find a new purpose within a ruined world? Tate Multimedia and Trialforge Studio are thrilled to announce Deathbound, an action RPG set in a brutal reality where Life and Death were never more conflicted. Absorb the essence of fallen warriors, and uncover the secrets hidden within a techno-medieval world brimming with relentless creatures. How will you fare against the horrors of Ziêmina when Deathbound launches in 2024?

Deathbound is set in a crumbling civilization where the clash between fanatical faith and unnatural science decimated the world of Ziêminal and the great city of Akratya. Throughout their crusade, players will encounter ruthless monsters who will test the will and valor of all who knock at their door. Within Ziêminal, there is no good nor evil, only justifications.

Akratya is a vile and dangerous city. It will take more than the traditional sword-and-shield to conquer, let alone survive. Deathbound features a unique Binding System allowing players to absorb the essence of the fallen warriors found throughout the world. Essence offers the opportunity to craft catered playstyles through a diverse range of skills and abilities, as well as form a party. Through dynamic transformation, players can switch between the heroes in a party at any time and adapt to the many perilous situations they will find themselves in. Binding also allows players to deliver devastating Morphstrikes using the combined powers of all the absorbed fallen. The line between life and death is razor-thin. A carefully executed Morphstrike can change the tide of battle.

The memories and identities of the fallen will be uncovered through Binding as well. In addition to the environment and items, essence will reveal the narrative behind the world of Ziêminal and its inhabitants. Though players must tread carefully when Binding, as not all heroes converge harmoniously. The conflicts caused by divergent essences absorbed will greatly impact the gameplay and narrative alike.

The Church of Death beckons. Are you brave enough to answer its call? Deathbound is set to launch in 2024. Players eager to step foot in Akratya and learn more of its deep history may do so by wishlisting Deathbound on Steam and joining the official Deathbound Discord server.
