Phantom Abyss Devolver Digital arrives in anticipated access on Steam

After a full trailer and a thorough overview of this year's Revolver Digital E3 showcase, it is at last time to get their hands on the Phantom Abyss multiplayer adventure title. Inspired by two television games like Takes hi's Castle and the genre in full swing and developed by Dealer Digital themselves, Phantom Abyss opposes other players while you cross ancient temples filled with fatal traps and Mystical enemies.

The most interesting aspect of Phantom Abyss is perhaps the high level of lethality in the temples — if you want to play the game, be ready to die. A lot. When you do it, other players will be able to see your ghost relive your last moments, allowing them to learn from your mistakes and move further in the temple. Keeping an eye on ghosts will be almost entirely needed to cross each level because the procedural generation engine of the game creates new deadly dungeons at each execution. This system has been nicknamed asynchronous multiplayer — you will certainly join other players during your trip to the temples, but not necessarily all at the same time.

As you go more and more deeply in the temples, you will be able to unlock new more dangerous levels of the map. Of course, this is where you can find the best booty — at the end of each temple is a legendary relic that, when claimed by an experienced player, will close the temple forever, leaving you a unique reward each When you finish a race successfully. The upgrades of your whip will also apply to all races, while other bonuses such as duplicate jumps and the flat flight will have to be won by offering treasures to the gods during your race.

Phantom Abyss Revolver Digital is now available on Steam Early Access, with keyboard and controller support.
