About Death Howl
- Death Howl is a genre-defying soulslike deck builder that follows Ro, a mother who refuses to accept the loss of her child
- While minimalist in presentation, Death Howl leverages a striking artstyle with profound, harrowing themes that revolve around grief, sorrow, survival, and acceptance.
- Death Howl demands sharp hunting instincts in order to anticipate enemy movement and learn attack patterns.
- True to soulslike tropes, defeat is not the end, but part of the learning path. Resting reinvigorates Ro, but also grants fallen foes life anew.
- Death Howl combines these soulslike mechanics with tactical, grid-based combat, deck-building systems, and action-RPG exploration across eerie, hostile biomes.
- Each region introduces new enemies, abilities, cards, and choices that will shape player progress.
Death Howl is now available on PC through Steam and GOG with console versions to follow on February 19th, 2026. Game development was supported by the Danish Film Institute’s program The Games Scheme.
