Gothic Metroidvania The Last Faith Gameplay Trailer

The Future Games Show has given us an extended look at the dark gothic action game The Last Faith, “an unholy alliance of Metroidvania and Souls-like” coming to all platforms later this year.

“The Last Faith thrives on merciless and precise combat, with a huge range of custom executions to perform,” the Steam listing tells us. “The wicked and the blessed will be judged the same; let nothing stand in your way.”

 

Eric is the protagonist of The Last Faith and has awoken in the world with no recollection of his past. His conscience and mind are beginning to deteriorate, putting him in a race against time to cure himself. The players journey to save Eric from his affliction will take them on “a cursed mission that crosses paths with ancient religions and divinities”.

Just like one of the title’s primary inspirations, Bloodborne, combat is at the core of The Last Faith. Players will engage in “merciless and precise combat, with a huge range of custom executions.” They will also be able to discover a “formidable arsenal of melee weapons, arcane spells, and long-range firearms” enabling them to build a character that suits their play style.

Like any good Metroidvania, non-linear exploration is a key part of The Last Faith and will allow players to upgrade their weapons and toolset. The title features various environments, including “snow-dusted mountains, deep dark forests, crypts, and cities bathed in the moonlight”, in which players can explore.
