    The fantasy-inspired world of Soulstice will transport players to places filled with danger and beauty. As sisters Briar and Lute race toward a Tear in the sky that has formed high atop the city of Ilden, increasingly horrific beings known as the Spawn of Chaos continue to pour into their world from the other side of the Veil. Only a Chimera, a powerful living weapon born from the union of two souls, can oppose these vile and ravenous beings.

    Explore a dark world brimming with hidden mysteries, master a diverse combat system, and inhabit the dual forces of two sisters in a coming-of-age dark fantasy story with fast-paced action, vicious enemies, and spectacular boss fights.

    Players eager to get a taste of Briar’s blitzing weapons-based combat and her sister Lute’s otherworldly arena-commanding abilities.
