If you’re looking to blow through Hell itself in a bullet hell shooter, then Kwalee’s upcoming FPS Scathe is just the thing. With an impending release later this year on consoles and PC via Steam, Kwalee will also have a time-limited demo of Scathe available later this week during Steam Next Fest.
Scathe casts you as the eponymous protagonist, the Enforcer of the Legions of Hell. You’ve got to prove your worth by navigating the maze of Hell, collect the Hellstones to escape, and handing out punishment to the demonic evils within.
It’s not as straightforward as you might expect, as you’ll be having to constantly dodge and weave past barrages of enemy fire while dishing out your own. Luckily, you’ll have quite the arsenal to be doing that, with each weapon having its own secondary fire.
And in case you need backup, Scathe also supports drop-in/drop-out multiplayer with crossplay. You can have up to three friends join you in the fight, though to make things a little more interesting, everyone shares the same pool of lives.
Steam Next Fest runs from February 21 to the 28.
