New Gameplay Trailer Released for Dark Action RPG ‘The Lightless World’ [Watch]

The3rd.One Games has released a new gameplay trailer for its upcoming dark action RPG, The Lightless World. Slated for an Early Access release on Steam, The Lightless World gives players a bit of a twist this time, utilizing a reverse horror theme set in a cosmic horror universe where you play as demonic god protagonists.

As mentioned, in The Lightless World, players can either embark on a solo journey or team up with a friend to face a wide range of enemies, from swarms of the lesser humans to powerful angelic bosses. As you progress, you’ll collect powerful items and discover new abilities, allowing you to customize your demon’s build and playstyle, adapting to the challenges of each run.

That customization mechanic involves the game’s intricate talent tree. Taking a cue from titles such as Diablo, this branching system offers players the opportunity to customize and specialize their character’s abilities, shaping their unique playstyle. As players gain experience points and level up, skill points are earned that can be invested in the talent tree. Unlocking a specific talent often requires points to be allocated in prerequisite skills in that path, promoting a sense of progression and specialization. The choices you make in the talent tree directly influences their character strengths, weaknesses and playstyle.

Success depends on strategic thinking and making the most of your character’s unique abilities. That’s because you’ll face off against a wide array of foes, from swarms of lesser humans to formidable angelic bosses. Strategic combat and effective use of your character’s abilities are essential for success.

In addition, throughout the map, players will encounter random events, challenges, and hidden secrets. These can range from temporal anomalies altering gameplay mechanics to mysterious portals offering valuable rewards or increased difficulty.
