Nacon and Cyanide Studio have pulled back the curtain on their latest stealth-action adventure - Blades of Greed marks the return of everyone's favorite green-thumbed thief. The mischievous goblin Styx slinks back into a shadowy fantasy realm that's begging to be pilfered.
Master of Shadows Returns
Blades of Greed promises to sharpen the series' signature blend of sneaking, stabbing, and strategic maneuvering across a living medieval world. Picture this: sprawling environments where every shadow could hide our pint-sized protagonist, armed with an arsenal of tricks that'd make even the craftiest rogue jealous. The beauty lies in choosing your own path - ghost through missions unseen or leave a trail of unconscious (or worse) guards in your wake.
This time around, Styx has his beady eyes set on magical quartz that practically screams "steal me." The freshly released gameplay trailer gives us a juicy taste of how our green antihero might nab these shiny prizes - think poisoned blades whistling through the air, perfectly timed distractions, and the occasional brutal ambush when subtlety isn't an option.
Mark Your Calendars
Goblin enthusiasts won't have to wait long to get their sticky fingers on this one. Blades of Greed is scheduled to slink onto Xbox Series, PS5, and Steam this autumn. While we're counting down the days, you might want to brush up on your lockpicking skills - something tells me we're in for quite the burglary simulation when this drops.
