"BEAST: False Prophet" is a brutal, gridless tactical RPG that sends players to the dark ages rife with plague and raiders. Join forces with your warband, develop your skills, and unleash your inner beast to shred through your enemies. But take heed, as your choices have consequences – in and out of battle.
False Prophet is a seasoned team of developers based in Warsaw (Poland). With industry experience our dev team aims to redefine the tactical RPG landscape with BEAST and push the boundaries of the soulsborne stealth-action genre with BANSHEE: Demon Girl.
BANSHEE: Demon Girl Announced at TGS 2024! TOKYO – 26th September 2024 Today, indie development studio False Prophet reveals their next project, code named BANSHEE: Demon Girl, at Tokyo Game Show 2024. BANSHEE offers an action packed single player stealth experience inspired by s
BANSHEE: Demon Girl Announced at TGS 2024!
TOKYO – 26th September 2024
Today, indie development studio False Prophet reveals their next project, code named BANSHEE: Demon Girl, at Tokyo Game Show 2024. BANSHEE offers an action packed single player stealth experience inspired by soulsborne games and will be developed in Unreal Engine 5 using top tier talent from the industry in sound, music and gameplay design.
Piotr Pacynko, founder and director explains: “The vision for BANSHEE is to be a mix between games such as Sekiro, Tenchu and Red Ninja, with unique gameplay elements only found in our game.”
In the late 1500s (Sengoku period), a female shinobi-samurai. A kunoichi in geisha disguise arrives with a secret mission in Europe with the first Japanese Embassy. Betrayed, she dies a gruesome death and becomes a demon (similar to European vampires like “Vampyr”, “Strzyga” or “Banshee”). As a player you will be able to send away or devour restless souls to grow in strength and discover secrets. Fight with Japanese swords, parrying death blows without a trace of fatigue. Raise fear and terror in European medieval cities & castles not only as a shinobi but also as a demon and devil incarnate in a beautiful human body.

The team is in Japan to gather early feedback from players and partners to get the look and feel right for the game as it enters early stages of production. Pacynko explains:
“With our previous game release “BEAST”, we waited for years during development to ask players for feedback. This time, we’re starting off early explaining the vision for the game and showcasing a first look demo of this vision to a genre fan expert audience such as the Japanese players.”
BANSHEE is described by the developers as a passion project they have planned for years to work on, Piotr continues: “The soulsborne genre is close to our hearts and so is Japanese and European history, we wanted to find a strong way using all our previous industry experience to combine those and tell a unique larger than life story using a fresh way to play this type of genre.”
BANSHEE is played in a unique way with something the studio calls the “Dance of Death Music System”. Col Walder – Composer for BANSHEE explains:
“Banshee’s Dance of Death music system builds on the cutting edge Quartz and Harmonix technology in Unreal Engine 5 to synchronize the gameplay action and audio. Enemy AI and animations follow the timing and rhythm of the music to create a gameplay experience that is both cinematic and interactive. Custom music themes for enemies composed alongside the gameplay design mean that players can learn the rhythms of light, heavy, and combo attacks and by listening to the music defeat powerful enemies even with their eyes closed.
Taking it further, Dance of Death features bi-directional synchronization; even as the gameplay and enemy actions are synchronized to the music, the music is dynamically responding to the player. Musical themes and leitmotifs do battle in the score, echoing the action on screen, as the player becomes an active part of the composition with the sounds of their parries, blocks, and attacks.”
BANSHEE is targeted for PC Early Access in September 2025.
The main theme to BANSHEE will be sung by award winning singer Jillian Aversa.

We have set this discount to raise funds for further production of BEAST!
We believe that the finished product has a chance to find its audience. There are hundreds of thousands of players of tactical turn-based RPG games out there. We have to find them somehow.
As for discounts, this will be the last such low price for the game. In the future, the price will be higher due to the fact that the price of the game does not seem to have a significant impact on its sales.
Therefore, I encourage you to buy the game now, play it and leave a review.
We will be happy to see your screenshots, videos and funarts.
Also we've got an exacting news for you!
Our video game called "BANSHEE: Demon Girl" will represent Poland at the World Expo in Japan!!!
We have been invited by the Polish Investment and Trade Agency (PAIH) to the Polish-Japanese Export Forum which will take place on May 20, 2025 in Osaka.
One of the six export industries of Poland are video games. BANSHEE is a unique game. It is about the first Japanese woman in Europe. It is a great honor and distinction for us.
WISHLIST IT NOW:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2989840/BANSHEE_Demon_Girl/
As you probably know, BANSHEE is a real "passion project" - we finance it with our own time and hard work. That is why I encourage you all to support our fundraising campaign for the trip to Japan. Without you, it will not be possible!

Dear Players,
We know that not everyone got the previous discount, so we're launching it again - this time 90% (so that there are no errors when converting to local currencies...). Thank you for your support in these difficult times - we believe that together we'll manage to finish this game!
I would like to share something else with you, taking advantage of the fact that more people follow these notifications than the forum or our Discord:
Recently, something incredible happened that restored our faith in life.
Few days ago, we were very saddened by the negative comments about the game not being supported anymore. A recording by a famous YouTuber has caused a wave of unnecessary hate. Many people followed him and started posting negative reviews and comments on the forum out of hatred. Everyone has expressed their opinion, but just like him, they haven't even made an effort to understand the context of the problem we're in for more than a year. And most importantly, to show some empathy. Most of the negative reviews were written even by people who haven't played the game...
The game is not supported because we ran out of money. Publishers see the negative comments and avoid us from a distance. Actions like "review boombing", even on such a relatively small scale, destroy the dreams that we will finish the game someday.
But at the moment when we were most devastated, the voices of people who actually played the game appeared. People started to defending us! This has strengthened our hearts! Thanks to you all, we know that there is still a point in fighting, even when everyone is pointing fingers at us...
We decided, despite all the difficulties, to try to update the game somehow on our own. Expect an update, although it's hard to say how long it will take. But the beautiful thing is that our team has reunited and wants once again try to finish what they started.
Every copy sold, every addition to the wishlist, review, like, comment or share, makes us know why we keep doing this. Let's not give in to trolls and malcontents. Together we are stronger!
Please buy the game, play, let us know what you like, don't like and what you would like us to improve. We will analyze your feedback in detail and we will try to make the final product meet your expectations.
Thank you once again for your understanding and I hope that over time the situation in the gaming industry will change and we will be able to give you more than you gave to us.
Stay safe!
Kind Regards,
Piotr Pacynko

Dear Players, As the creator of BEAST, I would like to sincerely apologize to you, the fans of the game, for not being in touch for the past year. I was devastated that after more than 4 years of work on this game, when we released it in Early Access on Steam (Oct 25th, 2023), th
Dear Players,
As the creator of BEAST, I would like to sincerely apologize to you, the fans of the game, for not being in touch for the past year.
I was devastated that after more than 4 years of work on this game, when we released it in Early Access on Steam (Oct 25th, 2023), the game was selling below any expectations.
We tried to do everything we could to reverse this trend by presenting the game to publishers and to a wider audience during fairs. But we failed.
On this sad occasion, I offer you a 95% discount, so that everyone who wants to can play the game and express their opinion in reviews and comments.
The game is playable on PC and Steam Deck. Mouse and keyboard work best, but you can also try playing on a controller. There are over 40 hours of gameplay ahead of you. There is one ending, but it is worth playing at least twice. There are extreme ways to complete it (exorcising the beast or strengthening it for your needs), but going to extremes is not always the way to the goal... Hardcore and ironman game modes are also available.
I encourage you to contact me if you have any difficulties during the game. I am here to help and advise. You can find me here on the Steam game forum or on our Discord. I will be grateful for any feedback, because I collect comments on the game to improve it when the time comes.
At the request of players, I have updated the description of the early access game so that it is not misleading. I have noted in the description that we are not developing the game at the moment. We did it for the first three months, then ran out of funds. I hope that we will manage to obtain funding to finish BEAST, so please play and let me know what you think.
Thank you once again for your understanding and I hope that over time the situation in the gaming industry will change and we will be able to come back to you with some positive information about this project.
Stay safe!
Kind Regards,

Dear Beasts,
This is Piotr Pacynko, founder of False Prophet Studio.
I personally wanted to thank you for showing interest in our game.
We've worked very hard to get to this point in our Early Access.
We would like to finalize the game by fixing bugs and polishing it to 1.0 as well as release it for consoles. For us Early Access is just that, a kickstarter where you have to prove yourself. We think that with such a great community, nice media coverage and steam reviews, we're off to a good start.
But marketing, PR and current sales alone is unfortunately not enough so we now turn to you dear community to help us spread the message of being able to buy "BEAST: False Prophet" for an incredible price during Steam sales. We have so many great ideas and plans for this game including additional DLC expansions beyond the 30-40 hours of missions currently available.
Any kind of support will be so greatly appreciated and every single one of you reading this matters for the cause:
Leaving a review on Steam
Gifting the game to a friend, family member or loved one
Telling your family, friends and loved ones about the sale
Telling your favorite streamers about BEAST and ask them to stream it
If you're still keeping BEAST on the wishlist, now is the time to buy it for an incredible value and help us in the process to be able to complete our first game.
Thank you again for your consideration and support in making our dream a reality and Happy Holidays.
