Greetings, Lost Souls!
We can proudly say that our adventures with Ro are taking more shape than ever. We are almost ready to announce the release date, but we need to keep you waiting a little bit longer. And yes, we are still on track to release Death Howl in 2025!
13 locations, 24 different types of enemies, around 150 different cards, quests, and many more features unlockable through story progression is almost done at the moment.
To help you get more familiar with the mechanics and gameplay awaiting you in the full release, we have prepared a new Gameplay Showcase Trailer, where we break down all the important things you need to know while playing Death Howl.
Check it out here:
Our trailer is divided into 5 parts:
“Balancing The Scales” – An example of a quest appearing in a location and how it affects gameplay.
Cards, Crafting & Upgrading Skills – As your story progresses, you will find materials to upgrade your deck. Here, you will learn how to do it.
Combat Basics – Combat is a major part of the game, and here you will find everything you need to get started.
Advanced Combat Strategies – Combos, synergies, and environment interactions that will help you defeat stronger enemies.
Spirit Cards & Totems – A skill tree with powerful boons that enhance your deck’s power.
In the next announcements, we are planning to prepare a whole article series for you, which will serve as a guide when you need help or want to learn more about the game’s mechanics.
Sign up for the Playtests this weekend!
As we have almost everything set, we would like to make sure that everything is balanced to your future journeys
That’s why we are opening sign-ups for the closed playtests of Death Howl which will be held from November 7th to 10th.
To sign up, just click a button on the Steam Store Page, and you are all set!
During the playtests, you will be able to experience most of the content that will be available in the final release of the game (around 20+ hours of it), both on PC and Steam Deck!
We will appreciate all of your feedback and cannot wait to see you in the Spirit Realm.
Take care,
