No Matter Studios has announced that its atmospheric, boss-focussed action-adventure, Praey for the Gods, will launch on Steam Early Access on January 31st.
Praey for the Gods (which, once upon a time, didn’t have the conspicuous ‘a’ in its name – until Bethesda’s lawyers got on the case) was first unveiled back in 2016. Not long after, it successfully managed to crowdfund $501,252 USD through Kickstarter, easily smashing its original $300,000 USD goal.
And really, it’s not hard to see the appeal. Praey for the Gods’ beautiful, snow-blanketed landscape looks wonderfully melancholy, and provide a striking background to the adventures of a young hero tasked with finding a way to end the perpetual winter. And that, it transpires, involves slaying the gargantuan creatures (or gods, if you will) that inhabit the mysterious world.
