Item Description
The studio that helped bring Streets of Rage roaring back turned its fists toward swords and sorcery for this one. Absolum comes from Guard Crush Games, co-developer of Streets of Rage 4, working alongside the French animation studio Supamonks and publisher Dotemu, and it carries the spirit of the fantasy brawlers that once filled arcades: a party of mismatched heroes, a tyrant on a throne, and screens packed with enemies who badly need hitting. Every frame is hand-crafted, and in motion it looks like a lavish animated film you happen to be controlling.
The world is Talamh, ruled by the Sun King Azra and policed by his Crimson Order, and four rebels stand against them. Galandra is an elf who swings an enormous sword. Karl is a dwarf who settles things with guns and bare fists. Cider is a nimble assassin with twin daggers and mechanical limbs, and Brome is a frog wizard who surfs through the air on his scepter. Each plays very differently, and the combat has the weight, timing and crowd control Guard Crush built its reputation on, so mastering a hero feels like learning a fighting-game character rather than memorizing a pattern.
What makes Absolum new is its roguelite structure. Each run begins with Rituals, passive abilities you equip at the start and keep adding by clearing encounters, but lose entirely if your hero falls. Inspirations, active combat skills, are earned by defeating bosses. Because different Rituals stack in different ways, no two attempts play out quite the same, and the urge to try just one more build is strong. A second player can join in co-op, which is exactly how a fantasy beat 'em up deserves to be played.
The soundtrack is led by Gareth Coker, with guest composers Mick Gordon, Yuka Kitamura and Motoi Sakuraba, an extraordinary lineup that gives every boss fight real swagger. Critics responded in kind: the Switch version earned a 90 on Metacritic, and Absolum picked up a Best Independent Game nomination at The Game Awards. It is the rare modern brawler that honors Golden Axe-style nostalgia while giving you a reason to keep playing long after the credits.
