Blasphemous is out now on iOS, bringing brutal grimdark action to your iPhone
Rip and tear... Oh, wrong game
- Blasphemous, the indie hack 'n slash Metroidvania platformer, is out now on iOS
- It puts you in a world of brutal religious fanaticism as you battle through hordes of monsters
- Take on brutal bosses and challenging difficulty, with all DLCs included
After a long wait, hit indie hack 'n slash platformer Blasphemous has finally made the jump to iOS after first arriving on mobile via Android. Now, players on both iPhone and beyond can leap into the grimdark fantasy world of Blasphemous and start cutting their way to redemption, with all DLCs included.
Set in a dark fantasy world fuelled by religious fanaticism, you'll explore the land of Cvstodia in Blasphemous. A hardcore, side-scrolling hack 'n slash with designs and difficulty reminiscent of Castlevania spliced with Dark Souls. Blasphemous has been rightfully praised for its visual design and challenging gameplay.
Certainly, it's fair to say that Blasphemous isn't just about looks. Wielding a cursed sword and with an equally grim-looking appearance, Blasphemous offers hardcore, gorey hack 'n slash action. And with an enormous non-linear world to explore, various bosses to fight and upgrades to collect, there's plenty to keep you occupied in Cvstodia.
Blasphemous is one of those releases that's been hotly anticipated and demanded by players for pretty obvious reasons. This is a visually enthralling and brutally demanding platformer that's sure to offer hours of playtime to even the most hardcore gamers.
It seems as if there's an ever-increasing wave of indies now realising the potential avenue that mobile presents. As with hits like Balatro and Vampire Survivors, I wouldn't necessarily call mobile the promised land for devs of this stripe, but it seems as if it's becoming increasingly clear that when indies strike gold their next step to build on that success should be a platform everyone has in their pocket.
