It’s out tomorrow on Steam

After a round of delays, Wolf Brew Games is bringing its brutal hack-and-slash platformerSlain!to Steam tomorrow, March 24. The console versionsare still coming, but not until later this year.

The lighting, particle effects, and sometimes eye-melting color palettes in the game look dang cool in motion — most of our coveragehas used gifs, not screenshots, for that reason — and what’s shown in this launch trailer is no exception. I hope it’s as engaging to play as it is to look at.
