Streets of Rage 4 Devs Announce New Game

Dotemu, in collaboration with Guard Crush Games and Supamonks, proudly presents Absolum, a thrilling fantasy beat 'em up infused with roguelite elements. Set in the ravaged world of Talamh, where a magical cataclysm has left its mark, the story unfolds amidst a society gripped by fear of magic. King-Sun Azra, the ruthless ruler, exploits this fear, enslaving mages with his formidable Crimson Order. A band of courageous heroes—the necromancer Galandra, the rebellious gnome Karl, the mage Brom, and the enigmatic Sidr—dare to challenge his tyranny.

Prepare for intense, action-packed combat featuring upgradeable abilities, devastating combos, and potent magical spells. Absolum offers both exhilarating single-player and cooperative gameplay, allowing players to unleash combined attacks and perfectly synchronized strikes for maximum impact.

The game's soundtrack promises to be nothing short of legendary, composed by a trio of acclaimed artists: Gareth Coker (renowned for his work on Ori and Halo Infinite), Yuka Kitamura (whose credits include Dark Souls and Elden Ring), and Mick Gordon (the mastermind behind the soundtracks of DOOM Eternal and Atomic Heart).

Absolum is slated for release in 2025 on PS4/5, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam).
