The Thaumaturge by 11 bit studios to Launch on PC on December 5th - Play the Prologue Demo Now on Steam
If you're like me and have been on a Baldur's Gate 3 kick, you're also looking for what's next. Here, friends, I think I have the answer; Step into the vibrant yet perilous world of 1905 Warsaw, the central setting of the upcoming dark fantasy RPG, The Thaumaturge. In this multicultural hub, developed by Fool’s Theory and published by 11 bit studios, danger hides in the shadows, and even the slightest misstep can lead to unforeseen predicaments.
The art of the thaumaturge delves deep into the human soul. While it may sound elegant, Wiktor Szulski, the main character in the forthcoming RPG, knows that sometimes elegance must make way for grit. As Steam Next Fest unfolds from October 9th through 16th, players can immerse themselves in The Thaumaturge by experiencing an all-new demo. This demo serves as a prologue, offering an initial glimpse into Wiktor's compelling narrative.
Exciting News:
Additionally, 11 bit studios is thrilled to announce that The Thaumaturge will grace PC screens on December 5th, 2023. For console enthusiasts (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S), the game is slated to arrive in early 2024.
Setting the Scene:
Following an extended absence, Wiktor returns to a familiar yet transformed Warsaw. The year is 1905, and the city teems with culture while wrestling with crime and the competing interests of a diverse society. Street thugs and those who resort to violence find themselves powerless against the Salutors, demonic entities that thrive on human flaws and are controlled solely by Thaumaturges. However, the influence they bestow upon their master, whether viewed as a gift or curse, goes beyond mere combat.
Blurry Boundaries:
The line between good and evil is hazy and elusive for ordinary individuals. Some may firmly believe that their reprehensible actions stem from inner demons, but they remain unaware of the possibility that these demons are manipulated by a thaumaturge, serving a far-reaching agenda.
Harnessing Extraordinary Power:
The Thaumaturge wields an arsenal of extraordinary abilities that can be honed with experience, both for himself and his Salutors. Yet, he must always tread cautiously, for the boundary separating thaumaturgy from insanity is often ambiguous.
Don't miss The Thaumaturge's PC release on December 5th, with console versions (PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S) slated for early 2024. Dive into the prologue demo during Steam Next Fest, available until October 16th.
