Layopi Games and 1C Entertainment prepare for the release of their upcoming action-adventure title, Devil’s Hunt. Based on the novel “Equilibrium” by Pawet Lesniak, the project is a story-based exploration game taking place in a future world caught in the middle of an all-out destructive war between the champions of light and darkness. Which side would you defend? Would you join at all?
Follow the adventure with Hell’s newly appointed executor, Desmond. Through a series of unfortunate events, he acquires demonic powers which could decide the outcome of the entire war. But which side should he assist? While adjusting to his newfound demon powers, Desmond’s human side refuses to fade away (not that that’s a bad thing). Throughout his journey, he will experience his two inner selves struggle for dominance: a demon half deadset on revenge and a human half desperate to retain his humanity.
The team is currently working towards finalizing the project. There have been a few updates released by the developers this month, including some shared concept art of the Hell section that can be explored. A short clip was recently posted to the game’s Twitter page revealing some of the weapon choices available for combat. While he will have the ability to fight with his terrifying demon powers, Desmond can also make use of several handheld weapons.
You not only use your hands for destruction of demons in Devil’s Hunt but also swords, spears and other weapons of this variety!
