Bloodless will also come to Nintendo Switch later this year
AALBORG, Denmark – Aug. 29, 2024 – 3D Realms and Point N’ Sheep are proud to announce that Bloodless, the retro-stylized 2D action-adventure game, is out now on Steam for $14.99, with an additional 15% off launch discount available during the first week! Embark on a journey of redemption as Tomoe, a ronin who has relinquished her blade and forsaken bloodshed. Disarm your foes in hard-hitting combat inspired by the classics of the Souls-like genre as you fight to free your homeland Bakugawa from the evil Shogun Akechi.
In Bloodless, you’ll fight, die and rise again on a quest to cleanse the land from the Shogun’s bloody grasp. As a ronin who swore to abandon a life of bloodshed, you’ll take on your former allies, the champions of the Shogun’s samurai army, with nothing but the raw power of your bare fists. Master the dash counter, disarm your enemies in battle, and customize your playstyle with devastating attacks and combos. Explore a beautifully rendered pixel-art world and face down the demons of your past to bring peace to Bakugawa once more.
Key Features
- Unique Non-Lethal Combat: Tomoe has sworn not to take another life – master a combination of disarming counters and powerful ki-attacks to defeat your enemies.
- Depth & Customization: Use special ki techniques for unique combos, as well as enhancements from crests and herb infusions you’ll find across the land of Bakugawa.
- Striking Environments: Explore the sacred natural environments and oppressed districts of Bakugawa, which suffers under a violent and corrupt military regime.
- Emotional Storytelling: Seen as a coward and deserter in the eyes of her own people, Tomoe must return to her former land to spark the hope and courage Bakugawa needs to fight back.
Bloodless is planned to launch on Nintendo Switch later this year. A free demo for Bloodless is also available now on Steam. For more information, visit the official website, and follow the game on Twitter.
