Announced at the end of February 2025 and released less than three months later, that's what happened with Blades of Fire from 505 Games and MercurySteam.

No, it's not a Souls-like game, even though enemies respawn. Blades of Fire is instead a classic, combat-focused dark fantasy action-adventure game, reminiscent of titles such as Severance: Blade of Darkness and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - also developed by MercurySteam - and, once again, the intense battles are the main highlight.
