[h3]Steel Mantis is teaming up with Silver Lining Interactive to bring you a brand new, blood-soaked, pixel-art action platformer. [/h3]

If you’ve loved Steel Mantis’ previous titles, you know what’s coming: intense, fast-paced combat, brutal challenges, and an unforgettable story-rich world to explore.

Get ready for Slain 2: The Beast Within, the brutal sequel to Slain: Back From Hell. The moon is rising, the blood is flowing, and the hunt begins. Step into the boots of Prince Akran, the last of the Wolf Knights, and wield the sentient sword Bathoryn as you fight through hordes of demonic creatures. Transform into a savage werewolf under the full moon, tear your enemies apart, and reclaim sacred relics in a dark and blood-drenched world consumed by darkness.



[h2]What can you expect?[/h2]

[h3]Ferocious Combat[/h3]
If you’ve enjoyed Steel Mantis’ signature fast, satisfying combat, get ready for more of that. Cleave through enemies, unleash elemental chaos with the sentient sword Bathoryn, and feel the rush of every brutal attack.



[h3]Blood of Wolf Knights[/h3]
With insane speed and power, you’ll rip through enemies in ways only a cursed knight could. Transform into a savage werewolf under the full moon, and unleash unimaginable speed and power on your enemies.



[h3]Three Deadly Quests[/h3]
Embark on three challenging quests that will test your combat skills, your strategy, and your willpower. Sacrifices must be made, and terrifying foes await at every turn.



[h3]A World in Ruin[/h3]
Explore haunting, cursed towns, ominous catacombs, and fog-covered highlands - all set in a world that’s teetering on the edge of annihilation.
You know this is a ride you won’t want to miss.

[h3]ALL HAIL! The brand new arcade-style Challenge Mode is now available! If you've already beaten the game, Challenge Mode will be ready to play as soon as the latest update has installed. If you haven't beaten the game, Challenge Mode will remain locked until you do! [/h3]

These are some of the main differences between Challenge Mode and the default Original Mode:

• Therion is equipped with lives instead of a health bar
  
• Weapons are upgraded on-the-fly by collecting pick-ups
  
• Earn a score by defeating enemies and destroying anything that's destructible
  
• Weapons can be downgraded if you're hit by an enemy
  
• Gain extra lives at score milestones and by collecting Blood of Valfaris
  
• Checkpoints can be destroyed as a way to earn Blood of Valfaris
  

There are more details about Challenge Mode in our previous Steam post.

We've discounted the game to celebrate the arrival of Challenge Mode – it's available for half-price until next Monday, 2nd September.

VALFARIS: MECHA THERION ARRIVES ON CONSOLES LATER THIS WEEK!

The wait is almost over! You'll be able to grab Valfaris: Mecha Therion on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles in just a few days! It launches 29th August. Be sure to add the game to your wishlist on the console of your choice and you'll be notified as soon as it's available.
