New Information About Blades of Fire

MercurySteam, a studio boasting alumni from the creators of the cult classic Severance: Blade of Darkness, brings us Blades of Fire. Released in 2001, Severance’s groundbreaking limb-severing combat system, a brutal and realistic approach to gameplay, served as a major inspiration for this new title.

But Blades of Fire isn't just a retro throwback. It also draws heavily from modern action-adventure giants, particularly the cinematic combat and richly detailed world of the rebooted God of War. The team aims to blend fast-paced action with engaging RPG elements for a truly immersive experience.

A key feature is Blades of Fire's unique weapon crafting system. Players forge their own blades, meticulously customizing length, weight, durability, and balance to perfectly match their combat style.

The game follows Aran de Lira, a warrior locked in a desperate struggle against a cunning queen with the power to turn metal to stone. His journey will pit him against 50 distinct enemy types, each demanding a strategic approach.

Blades of Fire launches on PC (Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 on May 22, 2025.
