Hello press and streamer friends! Exciting news – Digital Uppercut, Digerati’s sister label, will be at this year’s Gamescom with Unto The End and Valfaris – two games which, in our extremely biased opinion, are shaping up to be two of next year’s hottest indie prospects!
Look forward to seeing you at Gamescom!
Unto The End
Platforms: PC and consoles
Release: 2019
Unto The End is a 2D cinematic combat-adventure, featuring a unique 2D combat system and handcrafted encounters, which follows a father’s journey through an unforgiving wilderness to get back to his family.
Key features
- Unique 2D Combat System: Read, react and counter enemy attacks, strike tactically with range weapons, and use opponents against each other as you fight in one-on-one and group battles.
- Handcrafted Encounters: The adventure unfolds through a series of carefully crafted multi-stage encounters, each featuring unique opponents with their own history and motivations.

Valfaris
Platforms: PC and consoles
Release: 2019
Valfaris is a heavy metal infused 2D action-platformer and the next game from the team behind Slain: Back From Hell. After mysteriously vanishing from galactic charts, the fortress of Valfaris has suddenly reappeared in the orbit of a dying sun. Once a self-contained paradise, the grandiose citadel now plays host to an ever-growing darkness. Therion, a fearless and proud son of Valfaris, returns to his home to uncover the truth of its doomed fate and to challenge the arcane evil at its very heart.
Key features
- Skulls in space! Gore in space! Metal in space!
- Savagely reduce foes to piles of gibs with an array of brutal weaponry
- Explore a diverse range of tainted environments as you venture ever deeper into the dark world of Valfaris
- Dominate ranks of deadly enemies and bosses, from the weird to the grotesque (and some that are just grotesquely weird)
- Gorge your eyes on devastatingly awesome pixel art hand-crafted by Andrew Gilmour
- Feel the power of a seismic soundtrack by extreme metaller and former Celtic Frost guitarist, Curt Victor Bryant
