Nazralath: The Fallen World is a new Dark Souls-inspired dark fantasy action-adventure game​


Euclidean Studios has announced a new story-driven, third-person, dark fantasy action-adventure game that is heavily inspired by Dark Souls and Planescape: Torment, called Nazralath: The Fallen World. In order to celebrate this announcement, the studio released the game's debut trailer that you can find below.

Nazralath: The Fallen World promises to focus on a compelling narrative and exploration through a rich, strong sense of atmosphere and world.

Alongside Dark Souls and Planescape Torment, the game will have influences from the twisted works of Zdzis?aw Beksi?ski and H.P. Lovecraft.

The following trailer features some cutscenes and some gameplay sequences. However, the gameplay sequences appear to be really rough. Still, this is a game in an early development stage. Not only that, but Euclidean Studios is a small team.

Let's hope that Nazralath: The Fallen World will be better than your average Dark Souls clones.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

The cinematics, art style and atmosphere look great to me. Those gameplay scenes, especially the fighting, looks rough.

Given this is a small studio and that I don't think they have made a game before - yeah not too high hopes for this one.

What makes the Souls games so good is a combination of many ingredients like gameplay, world building and art, which are being masterfully realized by FROM.

So far, no clone has come even close to the magic of the FROM games.

Don't think this one will, either. Love the style though.
 
The rendered stuff has a lovely aesthetic but the stuff that looks in-engine doesn't quite live up to that for me. If they can close the gap then this might be of interest - more souls-like is a good thing. I'll be keeping an eye on it at least.
