Blasphemous Metroidvania Now Thrills Android Gamers

The critically acclaimed hack-and-slash platformer, Blasphemous, has arrived on Android! Initially released in September 2019 for PC and consoles, this Metroidvania masterpiece from Spanish studio The Game Kitchen is a massive hit, bringing its grim, beautifully twisted world to mobile devices.

What Blasphemous Offers Android Players

Prepare to enter a world dominated by darkness, where every step is a struggle against an inescapable fate. A major advantage of the Android version is the inclusion of all DLC from day one. Players can enjoy the game using either a gamepad or intuitive touch controls.

The Story: A Cycle of Death and Rebirth

As The Penitent One, a solitary warrior caught in a relentless cycle of death and rebirth, your mission is to break free from the curse known as The Miracle. You'll face a world steeped in a distorted interpretation of religion and suffering. Cvstodia, the gothic land you'll explore, is filled with grotesque landscapes, hidden secrets, and countless mysteries waiting to be uncovered. The narrative is as complex as the gameplay itself, introducing tormented souls with their own stories of sorrow and redemption, influencing your choices and leading to multiple endings.

Immersive Atmosphere and Intense Combat

Drawing inspiration from history, art, and religion, Blasphemous weaves a hauntingly intricate narrative complemented by a perfectly fitting soundtrack. Combat and boss battles are intense and engaging, showcasing the game's unique style. The Mea Culpa sword is the star of the combat system, with pixel-perfect, gore-soaked execution animations. Players can customize their builds using relics, rosary beads, and prayers.

Future Enhancements

The Game Kitchen is actively working on further improvements for the Android version, including enhanced touch control customization and a full-screen option to eliminate black borders. This mobile port is already impressive, and these upcoming additions promise an even better experience. Download Blasphemous now from the Google Play Store.
