In recent days Ska Studios has announced the development of Salt And Sacrifice, a new installment of the saga very similar to the previous work of the studio, Salt and Sanctuary, and that at the same time will enchant all those fans of the Souls type games for its similarity in mechanics to Dark Souls or the future Elden Ring.
The main difference compared to the From Software titles is that this action RPG will be in 2D. However, the difficulty will be very similar as we are constantly presented with some of the most challenging battles, especially when it comes to facing the final bosses, as demonstrated by their 10 minute first gameplay that you have below.
In it we can especially appreciate a couple of battles against some of these bosses who will be able to make us mince in a jiffy if we are not careful when avoiding their blows. Therefore, it will be necessary constantly looking for the best time to attack and dodge. In addition, it will be possible to choose between eight different classes with their own abilities, being able to customize the appearance of these characters in the process.
Taking down the bosses will grant more abilities and there will also be pieces of equipment, amulets, more weapons and other objects that will remain hidden by the decrepit scenes with hand-drawn visuals. Even so, those who find the situation too complicated will be able to request the help of a second player thanks to the cooperative multiplayer online.
At the moment the launch of Salt and Sacrifice expected for the first quarter of 2022 on PS4, PS5 and PC.
