As a firm believer of omens, which is perhaps a little dramatic for a game's release, Necro Story was destined to show up on these pages. With every intention to write an article about it, lo and behold, the official press comes through, AND, confirmation of said release date.

From Rablo Games (and promoted by one of the best pirates since Threepwood - and no, Sparrow can get stuffed), Necro Story is an RPG where the 'hero' isn't interested in saving the world, but tinkering with the dead, then laughing about it with sidekick Vivi.

Key features include:

  • Master Over 20 Necromancy Spells: Explore 5 magical schools—Affliction, Darkness, Life Drain, Summoning, and Dark Pacts. Each spell comes with its own skill tree, allowing you to customize and perfect your necromantic abilities.
  • Capture & Command Souls: Don’t let your enemies slip away! Capture their souls, transform them into formidable allies, and strengthen your undead army.
  • Strategic Team Management: Choose your companions wisely, equip them with powerful gear, and manage their skills to maximize their potential. Transform into powerful demons or summon zombies and skeletons to enhance your squad and lead them to victory.
  • Unlock Hidden Secrets - Pay close attention to your surroundings, as the game is full of hidden paths you can unlock through puzzles to gain access to unique equipment & items.
  • Whimsical Storyline: Enjoy a unique blend of dark fantasy and humor as you navigate through a heartfelt narrative with plenty of witty banter and unexpected twists.

Necro Story is coming to PC via Steam (with a 15% launch discount), PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch on the 7th of October 2024.
