Shadwen Launches Today for PS4 and PC
Finnish game developer Frozenbyte, perhaps best know for the visually stunning Trine series, has released Shadwen, a stealth-action game set in a gritty medieval world of kings and assassins. The launch price is $14.44 on PC and $15.26 on PS4, but will increase to $16.99 on both platforms come one week after launch.
Key Features
- MOVE FREELY – Sneak and explore around the dark and gritty medieval province and use the environment to your advantage – use your rope to grapple onto rooftops, silently drop from ceilings, or veil yourself in the shadows.
- STAY HIDDEN – Pick your assassinations carefully. Avoid being seen, heard or getting caught indirectly. Suspicious sights and noises will alert the guards – use it to your benefit!
- TIME IS AN ACCOMPLICE – Time stands still when you are not moving Shadwen, allowing you to stop at any point mid-motion. Rewind time to manipulate your past and present actions!
- USE PHYSICS – Use physics and a freely attachable rope to drag and topple objects. Make deaths look accidental; let gravity do the grave work.
- CREATE TRAPS AND HAZARDS – Set up traps and hazards to lure guards towards their untimely demise; discover new ways to eliminate or distract your foes by crafting items into deadly surprises, including poison traps, spike devices, decoy toys and more.
- TWO CHARACTERS – Embrace the darkness with Shadwen and her abilities to protect Lily and create a safe passage for her.
Shadwen is available for purchase from Steam, PSN, GOG.com, Humble Store, Origin, and the GeForce NOW store, with more to be added later.
