Skautfold: Usurper is an action RPGin the style of a Metroidvania, with Soulslike elements sprinkled for good measure. Its name might not exactly roll off the tongue, but the combat looks tight, and the animations are slick, and it's available now on PS5 and PS4.

It helps that the protagonist seems so clearly inspired by Edward "the Fullmetal Alchemist" Elric, metal arm and all. Eldritch horrors have been unleashed by the other-worldly Citadel over London, and it falls on you to venture inside. There are apparently more than 90 different weapons and spells with which to craft builds across eight stats, and it sounds like it could be fun if you are up for a challenge.
