The Developers of Streets of Rage 4 Have Announced Their 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 instilled a deep-seated fear of magic in its inhabitants, Absolum unfolds a tale of rebellion against the tyrannical King-Sun Azra. Azra, leveraging this fear, enslaves mages through his oppressive 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 reign.

Prepare for intense, action-packed combat featuring upgradable abilities, devastating combo attacks, and potent magical spells. Whether you prefer to face the challenges alone or team up with a friend, Absolum offers both single-player and cooperative modes. Coordinate your strikes with a partner for truly devastating synergistic attacks.

The game's epic soundtrack is a collaborative masterpiece, composed by industry legends Gareth Coker (renowned for his work on Ori and Halo Infinite), Yuka Kitamura (Dark Souls and Elden Ring), and Mick Gordon (DOOM Eternal and Atomic Heart).

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