Absolum (NINTENDO SWITCH)
Absolum (NINTENDO SWITCH)
Imagine the artisans who resurrected the modern beat 'em up—the team behind Streets of Rage 4—joining forces with world-class animators to build a new universe from scratch. That dream is a reality. They have forged a hand-animated fantasy brawler that blends punishing, satisfying combat with the infinite replayability of a roguelite. This is Absolum.
The stage is a realm reeling from a magical apocalypse, a disaster so profound that the people now fear the power that once protected them. A despot king has capitalized on this terror, outlawing all magic and creating an army to enforce his will. But his iron grip is about to be met by an unbreakable will. A small resistance of outcasts, each a master of a forbidden art, is ready to fight back.
This is an action you can feel in your bones. The combat is a masterclass in design, a high-speed dance of skill and strategy. Channel overwhelming force as a colossal sword-wielding necromancer, or deliver explosive, close-range devastation as a shotgun-toting dwarf pugilist. With two more unlockable heroes, you'll find endless ways to bring the pain in this deep fantasy RPG adventure.
No two uprisings are the same. As a roguelite, every journey offers new paths, new enemies, and new powers to discover. Bring a friend along for the ride in seamless couch or online co-op and double the chaos, chaining your elemental powers together for screen-clearing devastation.
