The Knight Witch casts the deckbuilding spells this November

When you call yourself the Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team, you better be sure you can back things up with a decent game or two. It’s The Knight Witch that looks set to prove it. 

Coming from Team17 and the Super Awesome Hyper Dimensional Mega Team (they previously behind Rise & Shine, a game we loved!), The Knight Witch is a Metroidvania-styled bullet-hell in which players get the chance to join Knight Witch Rayne, utilising her powers in order to beat back a whole ton of monstrous enemies. 

Do so, save the loved ones at the end of the road and return back home and success will be found in The Knight Witch; a game which is due to launch on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5 and PC come November. 

In fact it’s November 29th 2022 when The Knight Witch will start the spellcasting, as we drop into the underground city of Dungeonidas, where the once peaceful metropolis has been besieged by a mysterious enemy and their army of unrelenting war golems. As Rayne, players will wield the power of a Knight Witch and decide whether to customise and upgrade her Knight abilities to give a faster-paced shoot ‘em up experience, or strengthen her Witch magic, through different deck building strategies created from over 40 unique cards.  

Cards you say? Yep, The Knight Witch brings forth some deck building plays, mixing up the usual gaming options even more. When you include a ton of accessibility options and assists too, a focus system and more, then you’ll begin to see how the personalisation worms its way in. 

The Knight Witch Key Features:

• Shoot ‘Em Up Spellcasting Sorcery: Encounter evil foes and choose whether to wield Rayne’s magic or use her weapons and wits to take them down.
• Body and Mind: The Knight Witch Duality: Customize Rayne’s unique playstyle, upgrading Knight abilities for a more fast-paced shoot ‘em up experience, or strengthen Witch magic and explore different deckbuilding strategies with over 40 unique spell cards to choose from.
• Build Trust & Make Lasting Bonds: Knight Witches become stronger with gratitude and trust and can earn it in many ways, not all of which are sincere – the choice to choose popularity over honesty lies in the players hands.
• Forward-Thinking Accessibility: The Knight Witch has been designed as a Metroidvania without barriers; with an intuitive on/off ‘auto-aim’ system, world-altering ‘cheats’ and a focused main story navigation system – players will never get lost and can tailor the game to their level of play.
• Super Mega Team: The Knight Witch is brought to you by a veteran team of developers behind titles including RiME, Moonlighter, and Plants VS Zombies.

Otherwise, hold tight until that November 29th release occurs on Xbox, PlayStation and PC.
