Fictions and Counterplay Games, developer of Godfall, have announced a new game called Armatus, which is a third person roguelite set in the demon filled streets of Paris. The game was shown during the Xbox Partner Preview, but it has been confirmed for PC, PS5, and Switch 2. It will also be available on Xbox Game Pass day one.
Armatus puts players in the role of a mysterious warrior that has been summoned to defend a group of people who were left behind after the veil opened and those deemed worthy were claimed. Everyone else was left on Earth at the mercy of demons. The unnamed warrior will venture through Paris to fight the demons and learn more about what happened, dying again and again while doing so.
“With Armatus, we wanted our gameplay to be a blend of modern firearms and supernatural powers, plus a little melee for good measure,” said Ming Zhang, Studio Head, Counterplay Games, “By layering in dynamic build choices for each run, we’ve created the frenetic, hyperkinetic combat that really defines our gameplay.”
“We’re so thrilled to be working with Ming and the talented team at Counterplay Games to help them bring Armatus to life,” said Kelsey Hansen, Producer, Fictions. “This is a game full of intense, fast-paced combat that truly feels incredible in your hands. We can’t wait for everyone to experience it in 2026.”
Armatus is due to be released in 2026.
