15 New Hack And Slash Video Games of 2023 and Beyond

The Relic

The Relic is an upcoming mishmash of hack and slash and Souslike that transports you into a dark fantasy world crawling with monstrous abominations that you need to take down to achieve your goals. The narrative sticks pretty closely to the Dark Souls rulebook, but the gameplay shifts the focus to parries and dodges over blocking – making for a game that’s more fast paced and aggressive. The developer has also stated that the game will have multiplayer elements, though we don’t know much on how it will work. Project Relic will release sometime this year.
