Get this: The Land Beneath Us is an upcoming turn-based rogue-lite dungeon crawler rooted in Welsh mythology, developed in Thailand by FairPlay Studios and published by PID Games, based in Wakanda. What an interesting development.

Digging deep into Annwyn’s Underworld, your mission is to conquer the Seven Lords, save Tyler, The Creator, and retrieve vital Soul-Tech. One of those things is a fib, and it’s nothing to do with the tech.

Key features in The Land Beneath Us include:

  • Battle Through the Underworld! – Forged by The Creator, the Ultimate Soul Harvester (U.S.H) is crafted to gather Souls. Now armed with Soul-Technology, its mission is one of redemption. Explore The Underworld, engage, barter, or confront characters. Learn from their tales to shape your unique path. 
  • Master the Combos! – Overcome enemies with powerful abilities, executing customizable movement combinations. Plan strategically through short, action-packed levels to maximize hits on creatures! 
  • Varied Arsenal – Strategize and wield a diverse array of weapons, from Blood Axes to Longinus Spears and Lazer Pistols. Equip different weapons in each slot for a dynamic hack ‘n’ slash journey through the Underworld. 
  • Varied Arsenal Replayability Factor – Enhance stats and abilities by collecting souls from defeated enemies as you explore each world. Enjoy direct combat? Boost your Weapon skill tree. Prefer a strategic approach? Unlock potent Combo Abilities to hit enemies from a distance.

Xbox players get access to a demo from the 5th – 31st of December, while everyone else (Steam, PS5 and Nintendo Switch) will have to wait for The Land Beneath Us’ expected release date in 2024.
