Witchfire planned for Early Access late this year

Developer The Astronauts have announced their roguelite shooter, Witchfire, will launch to Early Access later this year as an Epic Games Store exclusive.

In Witchfire, a deadly war rages between powerful witches and the Church. In this alternate reality, witches are very real and very dangerous — but so is the witch hunter. Armed by Vatican sorcerers, players wield an ungodly array of guns and forbidden magic as they combat dark terrors on behalf of their shadowy benefactors.

Witchfire will be the second release for The Astronauts, following The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Built in the Unreal Engine 4, the game promises semi open-world levels, featuring advanced photogrammetry and post-processing that create an immersive and realistic dark fantasy world.

Witchfire will launch to Early Access later this year as a premium title on the Epic Games Store for PC.
