The most infamous goblin is back! Cyanide Studio and NACON are pleased to announce that the stealth game Styx: Blades of Greed officially launches today on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam, Epic Games Store). Set in a medieval fantasy world, players step into the role of Styx, a devious goblin with a devastatingly dark sense of humor and a true master of stealth, as he hunts for Quartz — a resource as precious as it is dangerous. Explore vast vertical environments, master new tools and powers, and uncover the sinister presence hidden within the Quartz.
Styx: Blades of Greed builds on the proven formula of the first two installments and perfects it by placing freedom and creativity at the core of the experience. Every situation becomes a playground where intelligence, tactics, and experimentation are your greatest weapons. There is never just one way forward: players invent their own solutions to stealth puzzles by sneaking, trapping, or assassinating enemies without leaving a trace, greatly enhancing replayability.
Styx has many new tricks up his sleeve. He can harness the mysterious powers of Quartz to control his enemies—or even time itself! The master of stealth also gains new traversal tools: a glider that allows him to soar through the air, metal claws to climb sheer surfaces, and a grappling hook to reach previously inaccessible areas. Players can fully customize Styx by upgrading his powers and tools through a skill tree and equipping runes, shaping the gameplay to match their personal playstyle. For the first time in the series, the game adopts a Metroidvania-style approach, gradually unlocking access to new areas that were previously out of reach.
Developed on Unreal® Engine 5, the game delivers vast, stunning environments to explore freely.
Whether you are discovering the world of Styx for the first time or are a long-time fan, it has never been so much fun to be greedy!
