Elden Ring meets Castlevania in new Bloodborne-inspired indie game

The Last Faith is one of those indie games that catches your eye as soon as you spot it. It ticks all of the most important Metroidvania boxes, with its whimsical Castlevania-like pixel art and its intense soulslike gameplay reminiscent of Bloodborne or Elden Ring. During the Future Games Show at Gamescom, we got a sneak peek at The Last Faith's official beta gameplay trailer. From its chaotic combat to its Dark Souls-esque story, you won't want to miss Kumi Souls Games' upcoming launch.

Now Available: The Last Faith Beta

We are delighted to confirm that The Last Faith Beta is now available to download.

The beta is now listed on The Last Faith Steam page - simply go back to the main page, hit the Request Access button and the gates of Mythringal will open.

Here's what to expect:

The Last Faith Beta will take you into Mythringal; a towering city ravaged by cursed souls. This place hides secrets and haunting memories. We’ll arm you with a sword and firearm, but the rest is down to you.

Our internal testing has shown a surprisingly wide range of completion times for the Beta, from 20 minutes all the way up to 90 minutes. There should be enough blood vials to carry you through, but don’t be discouraged if you don’t quite make it - you wouldn’t be the first to be claimed by the city.

No more reading. It’s time to play. Our hearts are beating as fast as yours.

Good luck out there.

Two notes to consider:

* AlphaBetaGAmer’s build is a little older than the one you’ll get your hands on
* There’s some mild spoilers, nothing outrageous

See you on August 23rd at the Future Games Show: 11am Pacific/ 2pm Eastern / 7pm UK / 8pm CEST.

The Last Faith Beta will take you into Mythringal; a towering city ravaged by cursed souls. This place hides secrets and haunting memories. We’ll arm you with a sword and firearm, but bear in mind The Last Faith is intended to be challenging, don’t expect mercy.

We intend to launch The Last Faith Beta on Steam (Windows only) via the Steam Playtest function. PC will be our primary platform for Betas and demos, and we already have plans for another demo before the game’s full release.

When? We are going to reveal the Beta launch date in less than two weeks.

At the Future Games Show on August 23 you’ll know precisely when it’s time to sharpen your blades. Be prepared for anything.

IGN has an exclusive look at The Last Faith’s most ferocious boss duo: Yegor and Leena.

You’ll find Yegor and Leena in the full game, far from the moonlit brickwork of Mythringal, lurking in the depths of an abandoned mansion.

Don’t expect them in the demo - as you’ll see from the gameplay video, you’re not quite ready to face them.

See you on August 23rd at the Future Games Show: 11am Pacific/ 2pm Eastern / 7pm UK / 8pm CEST.
