[h2] About the Game[/h2]
The Devil Within: Satgat aims to rejuvenate the action-platformer genre by bridging generations of game design: a traditional action-sidescroller base that is infused with souls-like and metroidvania elements.

Assuming the role of an amnesiac swordsman Kim Rip, you aim to not only seek out your lost memories, but also answers regarding the mysterious Ebon Sting, a foreboding tower that has suddenly appeared and brought demons with it. A daunting set of tasks that can be accomplished with your growing arsenal of skills, weaponry, and a demon that resides within you.

Newcore Games designed The Devil Within: Satgat as a means to rejuvenate the action-platformer genre that we once loved. Drawing inspiration from a plethora of games and after nearly 3 years of development and loads of feedback from our 7-month Early Access community, we hope that The Devil Within: Satgat keeps you engaged with all that it has to offer. The parry and different skills out of guard/dodge/dash, supers/specials in the form of Concentrated Counterattacks, and the massive skill tree that includes a devil form: all of these things helped bring the fast pace close range combat that we wanted to see growing up.

[h2]Thank You[/h2]
Newcore Games is a small studio out in South Korea that really wanted bring the game genre that we loved growing up with and modernizing it. This game was made possible because of the tons of experience in the 3 years of developing the game together as a team, friends in the industry who pushed us in the right ways, and of course the amazing amount of support and feedback by our Early Access community. The Devil Within: Satgat is in the best shape that it could ever be in because of everyone who helped out and we could not be more proud of it. From the bottom of our hearts, we sincerely thank each and every one of you.

Hello everyone,

The launch version of The Devil Within: Satgat will bring in content that Early Access users helped shape. With that in mind, there are a few things we want to introduce as well as a few notes to consider for the full launch.

[h3]1. New Story[/h3]
The full launch version of the game will feature a vastly different story from the one that players enjoyed through Early Access. While some parts kind of carry over (like our amnesiac protagonist), the way the other characters play a role in the overall story is quite different. Here is a short conversation with Dongbaek about what to expect:

There are also many exhilarating boss fights to be enjoyed in the full version of the game. For those of you who are new, the Black Crow Combatant (a boss that you fight in stage 2) has a bit of a bone to pick with Kim Rip:


[h3]2. New Skills (including the Devilized form)[/h3]

We added a lot of new skills for players to toy around with. With the anti-air skills as well as the devilized form (which plays "Bloodletting Me" by Matthew Kiichi Heafy when you transform so you can rock out while destroying your foes), players will find that there are a bountiful amount of combos that they can string together.

[h3]3. AP System Changes[/h3]
The AP (stamina) System was revamped through one of the Closed Beta Tests and it seems that players really resonated with it. Before, when you ran out of stamina, you can only do an emergency dodge and walk around at a very slow pace.

After the changes however, you can keep doing light attacks, jump, and move. Essentially, when you run out of AP, the only actions that are restricted are actions that require AP. We made the adjustments so that you can keep up the offensive effort or move-out of the way to prioritize the defensive effort.


[h3]4. The Capital (and revisiting old stages)[/h3]
Stage 4 is all about The Capital. We talked a bit about the Capital previously - Kim Rip comes to grips with his past and other characters play a pivotal role in the Capital. Aside from the story, Kim Rip also gains access to powers here that have long since been teased.


The Capital is filled with powerful demons that seek to take out Kim Rip. Regardless of difficulty level, the careless will have difficulties traversing though this stage. However, those who have reached the Capital will undoubtedly have mastered the offensive, defensive, and mobility skills to perfection (...right?).


[h3]5. Artifacts, Accessories, Weapons[/h3]

Much like in the Early Access version, there will be more accessories, artifacts, and weapons that will further augment your combat prowess. You can find these items by unlocking Silver/Gold Chests, finding them in different stages, or completing the boss challenges in The Corruptor's Memory Shards. Explore every corner of the stage and you will be rewarded for your efforts.

[h3]6. Early Access Users get the full version[/h3]
For those of you who bought into Early Access, we cannot thank you enough. By doing so, once the game hits the official launch date/time, you will be able to update your game and enjoy the fully version of The Devil Within: Satgat. We have had a couple of questions regarding this, so we wanted to make sure everyone was in the know.

[h3]7. Early Access Save Files[/h3]
With the amount of content that is coming into the game, as well as the big changes to the story, game mechanics, and more, your save files from Early Access will not be able to be carried over. This was unfortunately inevitable with the amount of things that have changed since the start of Early Access, but we feel that players will enjoy playing with a fresh save file.

If you want to collect all of the achievements and what not before the game is updated, please do so before the launch date! After that, achievements and progress will inevitably be reset (though there are more achievements in the full version)!

[h3]Almost There![/h3]
Once again, thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. The long awaited launch day is just around the corner! Follow us on all of the different channels to stay up to date as we will be revealing more things as we head to launch!
