Blades Of Fire Will Be Officially Released On May 22, 2025
Video game publisher 505 Games and developer MercurySteam have announced the upcoming fantasy epic game Blades of Fire, which will be released on May 22 this year. The story is set in a world where the evil Queen Nerea has turned all steel into stone, and any forces that oppose her rule will be futile.
Game Introduction
Aran de Lira is the last hero who can wield Hammer of the Gods, and Adso is a young scholar whose knowledge of lost myths and sacred tongues may affect their fate. Learn how to forge a nearly infinite number of weapons in the game’s unique “Weapon Forging” system to bring the queen to her knees. Combine countless alloys, hilts, runes, blades, and hammer marks to create and perfect the ultimate weapon to defeat evil. Each type of enemy will bring unique challenges, and each weapon you forge will be able to meet these challenges!
“MercurySteam has a strong reputation for creating unique and beloved games, which is one of the many reasons we’re excited to work with them on Blades of Fire, and we can’t wait to share it with the world,” said Neil Ralley, President of 505 Games.
Blades of Fire will be available on EPIC Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on May 22.
