OMG HE’S BACK

Nacon and Cyanide Studio have announced Styx: Blades of Greed, the third installment in the stealth-focused series, set to release in Fall 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Players will once again control Styx, a cunning goblin thief, as he leads his own crew in a quest to steal Quartz—a powerful resource central to a looming war among elves, humans, and orcs. The game emphasizes freedom and creativity, offering vast vertical environments and a variety of tools and powers, including abilities granted by Quartz such as mind control and time manipulation.

The narrative begins with Styx leading his crew aboard a zeppelin to hunt for Quartz, encountering familiar faces and new characters while outwitting the Inquisition’s traps. The adventure also marks the origin of the Black Hand mercenary group, pivotal to the events of Of Orcs and Men.

Players can explore three expansive open environments: The Wall, Turquoise Dawn, and the Ruins of Akenash. Traversal is enhanced with tools like a glider, grapple, and claw, encouraging exploration and offering multiple approaches to objectives.

Crafting weapons and potions is integral to the gameplay, allowing players to prepare for each heist strategically. Abilities such as Cloning, Invisibility, Mind Control, and Time Shift provide diverse solutions to challenges, reinforcing the game’s emphasis on stealth and strategy.
