18. Blasphemous

Release Date: September 10

Platforms: PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One

Set in a dark and disturbing fantasy world, this 2D action-adventure title takes a note or two from Dark Souls relentlessly grim lore and nail-biting challenge, yet also appears to have a few tricks up its sleeve.

Told in a pixel-aesthetic that echoes the Sega Megadrive, and accompanied with what appears to be a brutally satisfying combat system, plus terrifying boss battles; this could be something special indeed.
