Styx: Shards of Darkness

Styx: Master of Shadows is getting a sequel from Cyanide Studio, Styx: Shards of Darkness, and some early screenshots have been revealed.

The goblin assassin Styx will resume his role as the main character in Shards of Darkness, exploring a variety of lands throughout the game. These include the City of Thieves, built from the remains of shipwrecks, and the Elven city of Korangar, hidden high in the mountains. You can see them in high-res in the gallery below.

The new environments in the game are designed with an emphasis on verticality, making them larger and more open. According to Cyanide Studio, there is a lot of freedom in completing different mission objectives.

Styx: Shards of Darkness will run on Unreal Engine 4, and is coming to PC, PS4 and Xbox One later this year.
