Players control the Penitent One, a warrior with a tall hat and a long sword that means to carve their way through the twisted creatures the religion has birthed.
Blasphemous, which is being developed by the studio that brought players horror adventure game The Last Door, is currently raising funds on Kickstarter for a release in Q1 2019.
Players will choose the Penitent One’s path through the world, as the levels are open for them to choose whichever route they feel they can survive.
The High Pontiff has turned into a tree, burning for ninety days and ninety nights.
