Reviews

“One of the best games I played in 2020, [...] First-person melee games aren't that common and the good ones are even less so. [...] Money well spent.”
GmanLives

“Fighting in Elderborn is splendid. It’s mostly because you’re mobile. [...] Top stabbing. Good kicking. More like this please.”
Rock Paper Shotgun

“A Dark Messiah in Souls clothing.”

Blood West is a stealth FPS inspired by the genre classics such as the Thief series (whose fans will be happy to hear the voice of Stephen Russell, the actor voicing the master-thief Garrett, returning here as the protagonist), S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games, or - from the contemporary catalog - Hunt: Showdown. The gameplay rewards the careful approach: scouting the area, stalking your enemies, and striking from the shadows. Can you figure out a way to clear a fort full of ghouls and monsters without raising an alarm?

Skill-based, souls-like melee combat in first person perspective, complete with 11 varied weapons to master
Character progression and skill system that allows you to play the game in your very own way
A hand-crafted, mysterious, and dangerous world to explore - catacombs, ancient, monolithic city, and more
A large selection of enemies, each with their own fighting style, tricks, strengths, and weaknesses
An epic and somewhat exotic original heavy metal soundtrack with an occasional electronic beat
An unapologetic tribute to Robert E. Howard-esque heroic fantasy and the awesome pop-culture of the 80's and 90's
New Game + mode!

Get barbaric!

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Elderborn takes place in a classic, Howardian, dark fantasy setting where strength is the law and there is no place for mercy. Brutal melee combat featured in the game creates gory imagery on every step. Heads will fly. Literary. The world depicted in the game also pays aesthetic tribute to heavy metal album covers. Scantily-clad warrior maidens and buffed barbarians with some artistic anatomical liberties are to be expected (but no actual nudity).
