The critically acclaimed hack-and-slash platformer, Blasphemous, has arrived on Android! Initially released in September 2019 for PC and consoles, this hit Metroidvania title from Spanish studio The Game Kitchen brings its grim, beautifully twisted world to mobile devices.
What Awaits Android Players?
Prepare to enter a world dominated by darkness, where survival is a constant struggle against an inescapable fate. A significant advantage of the Android version is the inclusion of all DLC from day one. Players can enjoy the game using either a gamepad or intuitive touch controls.
The Story: A Cycle of Death and Rebirth
As The Penitent One, a solitary warrior, you're trapped in a brutal cycle of death and resurrection, desperately seeking to break free from the curse known as The Miracle. Your journey takes you through Cvstodia, a gothic land filled with grotesque landscapes, hidden secrets, and numerous mysteries waiting to be uncovered. The world holds many surprises.
The narrative is as complex and rewarding as the gameplay itself. Cvstodia is populated by tormented souls, each with their own tales of suffering and redemption. Your interactions will influence your path, leading to multiple endings based on your choices. The game's dark lore is captivating and richly detailed.
A Soundtrack to Match the Atmosphere
Drawing inspiration from history, art, and religion, Blasphemous weaves a hauntingly intricate story, perfectly complemented by its atmospheric soundtrack. The intense combat and challenging boss battles provide thrilling gameplay.
The Mea Culpa sword is the star of the combat system, and its pixel-perfect, gore-soaked execution animations are a visual highlight. Customize your character's abilities by equipping relics, rosary beads, and prayers.
Future Enhancements
The Game Kitchen is actively working on further improvements for the Android port, including enhanced touch control customization and a full-screen option to eliminate black borders. This already impressive mobile port is set to become even better. Download Blasphemous now from the Google Play Store.
