News: The roguelike open world adventure Soulash 2 is a Early Access Hit
Immerse yourself in
Soulash 2, an innovative blend of roleplaying,
sandbox, and traditional roguelike genres. Conquer an expansive fantasy world, embark on daring expeditions to challenge formidable
beings, craft extraordinary artifacts, amass a fortune as a merchant or thief, or construct a monumental pyramid amidst the desert
sands.
Soulash 2 is a sandbox RPG roguelike with a procedurally generated open world, simulated history, skill-based progression system,
customizable abilities, material-based crafting, building, trading, and the possibility of total mayhem. Will you save your world
or destroy it?
✪ Character Customization
You can choose from 9 distinct races and customize your character's appearance to your liking. You can start a game as an orphan
or member of an established family and pick a place of your origin.
✪ Procedurally Generated Worlds
Each world in Soulash 2 is procedurally generated, complete with a simulated history. Generate unique settlements shaped by trade
routes, character lifecycles, resource extraction, and the triumphs and tragedies of war - all before you etch your own legacy into
their annals.
✪ Skill-based Progression System
While conquest and destruction lie at the heart of the game, your fate remains unwritten. Soulash 2's skill-based progression system
empowers you to unlock new abilities and actions through diverse activities, paving the way for unique possibilities. Become an expert
in your chosen path or a jack of all trades by combining different skills. You can be a warrior, a mage, an adventurer, a blacksmith,
a tailor, a thief, or fight your own unique way of existing in the world.
✪ Flexible Crafting System
Soulash 2's innovative crafting system lets you create items with your chosen resources. Recipes feature slots of different types that
can be fitted with unique magical ingredients, bestowing items with unparalleled properties that amplify character customization.
✪ Building
Use your creativity to build structures of wood, stone, or metal. Raise a castle as your seat of power, build a black pyramid in the
middle of the desert, or a simple hut in the Boreal Forest near the owlfolk village.
✪ Survival Mechanics
As you travel looking for adventure, murdering innocent villagers, hunting bears, or building a network of hideouts, you must take
care of yourself. Hunger and thirst add additional depth, requiring you to plan your routes and stocks. The consumption won't be a
bother though, we all know you have bigger things on your mind.
✪ Three Difficulty Modes
Embrace mortality - or defy it. Select from three distinct modes to suit your playstyle!
High Fantasy Mode: Suffer penalties upon death, only to resurrect in the nearest friendly location.
Beware, however - time's relentless march may still claim your character.
Dark Fantasy Mode: Experience true loss as death erases your character but leaves the world and your
creations intact. Continue influencing the world as a new character.
Hardcore Mode: Face the unforgiving roguelike experience with permadeath that annihilates both your
character and the world - no meta progression, no mercy.
Released into Steam Early Access Soulash 2 has achieved a very positive rating with almost 2.000 reviews. There's also a playable demo for players interested in trying out the game.
