[/h3][h3]PC Release Time

PC SPECS - Styx: Blades of Greed

[p]Oi, meatbag,

You want to sneak through the shadows, slit a few throats, and steal everything that isn’t nailed down?
Good.

But first, let’s see if your precious machine can keep up.

I’ve prepared a little list of “requirements”. Think of it as a test. If your PC survives, you get silky shadows, sharp steel, and cities worth robbing. If it doesn’t… well, I hear farming simulators run on anything.

Here are the specs you’ll need to follow me into the dark. [/p][p]Try not to disappoint me.

T-Minus 7 Days Until Launch!

[p][/p][p]
AH, you're here!
Good. That means you’ve got taste. Or bad habits. Probably both.
[/p][p]In just one week, I’ll finally slither my way onto Steam with Styx: Blades of Greed.
[/p][p]And to all of you who already crept through the Demo, poked every corner, broke a few things, and flooded my creators with feedback…
[/p][p]You have my gratitude. Which is rare. Treasure it.
[/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][hr][/hr][p]
Now, since you clearly enjoy spoiling me, let me present something shiny:
[/p]
💎 Quartz Edition (Deluxe)
[p]Consider this my personal thank-you note.

You get extra goodies. I get better toys. Everyone wins.[/p][p]The Quartz Edition is already available for pre-order on Steam for $49.99, and unlocks on February 17th.
[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr]

📅 48 hours Early Unlock
[p]Why wait?

Choose the Quartz Edition and you’ll get 48 hours of early access, letting you start your glorious career in backstabbing on February 17th. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]
👕 Dress like a legend
[p]A proper goblin never repeats outfits.
You’ll receive 5 skins for my charming self:[/p]
  • [p]3 exclusive Blades of Greed skins from the Greedy Skin Pack[/p]
  • [p]2 classic skins from the Legacy Skin Pack for those feeling nostalgic
    [/p]
[p][/p][p][/p]
🗡️ Stab with style
[p]Killing is an art form. Art deserves options.
Pick from 3 dagger skins to match your mood while opening throats.

Elegant. Deadly. Beautiful.

Ho and because humiliation is half the fun, enjoy 5 additional taunts to distract, lure, and psychologically ruin your enemies.
[/p][p][/p][p]And don’t forget to register to MyNacon in-game. You’ll unlock an extra dagger skin. Sharp. Just like me.[/p]

🎒Starter Pack

Try not to trip over your own greed on the way in.

Previously on Styx - Story Trailer

[p][/p][p]
Schemes within schemes.
Lies within lies.

Think you know my story?
Let’s see how good your memory really is.

Before the blood, the betrayals, and my next big mistake, here’s a reminder of how I crawled out of the Tower of Akenash… and kept making excellent life choices.

This story trailer revisits the key events of Styx: Master of Shadows and Styx: Shards of Darkness, leading to my newest obsession: Quartz… and the chaos of Styx: Blades of Greed.

Same goblin. New mess.

Move like a pro

[p]
So. You want to move around without being seen?
Good. Because walking like a clueless guard isn’t really my style.
[/p][p]In Styx: Blades of Greed, I don’t just sneak.
I climb, glide, swing, and cheat my way through places I’m clearly not supposed to be. Rules? Cute idea.
[/p][p]Let me show you how I get around.

[dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]But first, yes, this is the part where I tell you to wishlist or pre-order the game.
Do it. It makes the numbers happy. And I like happy numbers.[/p][p]You can wishlist my game (because it obviously worth it), or even pre-order it.

Base Edition for the reasonable.
Quartz (Deluxe) Edition for people with taste (like me)
[/p][p]Alright.[/p][p]Movement.
[/p]
Grappling Hook
[p]Big gap? High ledge? Sudden urge to disappear because someone finally looked up?
One pull, and poof, like the man dressed as a bat, I’m gone. Up, across. Or somewhere guards can’t quite look up to.

Sometimes, I’m in the mood for something spicier. Instead of pulling enemies to me, I pull myself to them.
[/p][p]A lonely guard standing there? A perfect opportunity. One yank. A very short scream.[/p][p]Then… calm. Deeply satisfying.
[/p][p]Useful for infiltration.[/p][p]Even better for escapes.[/p][p]Especially when things go loud and everyone suddenly remembers they’re bad at their job.
[/p][p][/p][p] [/p]
Glider
[p]I see you coming, and no, this isn’t one of those games where a flying bus drops hundreds of people for a cheerful group murder session. This is classy here.[/p][p][/p][p]So why take the long way when gravity can do the work for me?
The glider lets me float over open areas, bypass patrols, and land exactly where I want.
…Okay. Almost exactly.
[/p][p]But here’s the fun part: I don’t just go down.
Thanks to rising air currents, I can gain altitude, stay airborne longer, and reach places guards assume are “impossible to access”. (Spoiler: they’re not)[/p][p]Quietly.[/p][p]Gracefully.[/p][p]Mockingly.

I ride the wind (yep, I’m THAT good)... and then I drop straight into an enemy who never saw me coming. One silent aerial kill later, and I’m already gone, floating away while someone else wonders what just happened.
[/p][p]The best.


[/p]
CLAWS
[p]Walls.
You guards love walls.

They make you feel safe. Protected. Employed.

I climb them.

With my claws… No, not those claws, relax. My manicure is flawless. I mean the tool. The sharp one. The one that turns your “secure area” into a joke.

Quartz Walls become shortcuts, ambush spots, and unpleasant realizations for anyone standing underneath me.
[/p][p][/p]

Spectral Dash
[p]I’m a ghost!
…I mean,  not a ghost. But like a ghost![/p][p]No, I don’t wear a sheet on my head. Seriously…?
Focus! For f*ck’s sake![/p][p]\[...][/p][p]THANK YOU.
[/p][p]So. Metal grilles. Locked paths. “No entry” signs.
Adorable.

Spectral Dash lets me slip through certain obstacles like they were never there.
Different paths. Secret routes. Escape prison.
And one more reason your defenses were a waste of time.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
See, movement isn’t about speed.
It’s about control.
Control of the environment.[/p][p]Control of my enemies.[/p][p]Control of the poor guard reading this right now thinking: “Yeah… we’re screwed.”[/p][p][/p][p]And when I control the environment… you never even know I was there.
Styx: Blades of Greed launches in less than a month, on PC and consoles on Feb 19. Crazy right?

And if you already know you’re going to need me? Pre-orders are open now.[/p][p]Go on. Be prepared.
We’ll be working together very soon.[/p][p]I hope you’re ready. Because I am.
