Announced for PS5 last month, Blades of Fire has just debuted five full minutes of uncut gameplay footage.
The clip covers a bit of exploration around a fairly open environment, some early combat encounters, and a touch of the title's storytelling. Developer MercurySteam (of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow fame) stresses that this is still an unfinished build — but it already looks pretty solid to us, if a little bit janky.
As the headline of this article suggests, we think there are some real God of War (2018) vibes going on here. The over-the-shoulder camera, the weapon switching, the chatty companion character... We're going out on a limb to say that Sony's action adventure was an inspiration.
