Valfaris: Mecha Therion is Now Available on PC

Steel Mantis’s Valfaris: Mecha Therion, a sequel to the 2D action platformer from 2019, is out now on PC. It sees protagonist Therion returning to take down Lord Vroll through the galaxy. This time, he has Mecha Therion, a powerful mech for causing mass destruction.

Mecha Therion has three different types of weapons – Destroyer, Melee and Auxiliary. Destroyer weapons include the Hellwraith mini-gun, though you need to manage suit energy lest the damage drops off. The one Melee weapon is a blade that can kill enemies, destroy projectiles and debris, and even grant energy to the Destroyer weapons.

Auxiliary weapons deplete suit energy but provide other options like Blade Tempest for homing in on several targets. You can also equip up to three modules for different passive effects. Boosting forward allows for resisting damage, bursting through the environment and utilizing Critical Strikes with the Melee weapon.
