A World in Ruins: Story and Gameplay
Set a century after a cataclysmic event that ravaged the world, the haunting aftermath of the Grey Plague still wreaks havoc, leaving bloodthirsty beasts to stalk the desolate landscapes. As one of the few remaining survivors, players are infected and on the brink of transforming into an unspeakable monstrosity.
The task is simple yet arduous: find a cure or succumb to the horrifying infection. Battle through packs of chimeras, mutants, elementals, gargoyles, and golems, using dreadful symptoms to your advantage and eliminating the bloodthirsty creatures blocking your path.
Gathering limited resources, players can concoct powerful potions, injections, and amalgams to upgrade gear and weapons or enhance the hero’s strength. Combine elemental binding with firepower to create specialized ammo like piercing ice bullets and electrifying jolts. Rise victorious from grueling boss fights to unearth an antidote and save a dying world.
More Than Just a Game: A Universe of Possibilities
Sobaka Studio invites gamers to dive into the rich and desolate world of REMEDIUM, not only through the main game but also through REMEDIUM: Sentinels, a grim rogue-lite bullet hell set in the same universe. REMEDIUM: Sentinels is available now on PC via Steam, complete with Steam Deck compatibility, and on the Epic Games Store as well as Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4|5.
