The Gyldhunters are a versatile bunch, and that means there’s a ton of build potential to let you decimate a variety of well-designed enemies. Extra emphasis on the “well-designed” part, as every foe players faced came with very readable animations and deadly attacks. But the Gyldhunters are more than a match thanks to parrying and dodge mechanics that look as close to perfection (read: Sekiro) as they can get.

Whether you’re someone who likes to use magic to attack from afar, a brute who likes to tank as much damage as they dish out, or a swordmaster who uses finesse and unerring precision to bring down foes that are more than twice your size, there’s something for everyone to like in this one.

Your enemies are certainly not pushovers, but you’re a force to be reckoned with in your fight to repel the Gyldenmist. With the full game out on July 30th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC, now is a great time to get in on the action.

The extraction RPG that puts you in the shoes of the Gyldhunters, a group of exiled warriors who are putting everything on the line to reclaim their lost glory, has made an appearance at the Future Games Show Summer Showcase with a new trailer and finally has a release date.

The trailer gives us a closer look at some of its unique classes in action, along with battles that look like they’re severely tilted in favor of the monstrosities that the Gyldhunters must face down and defeat. However, they’re not entirely helpless, as they come with unique abilities and some sick moves that let them turn the tide against even the most fearsome of foes. Speaking of fearsome foes, we got a glimpse of a very nasty-looking antagonist who might just be the source of the Gyldenmist and the Gyldhunter’s woes.

It’s gloomy, moody, and even a tad unsettling, but it’s defintely one to look out for this year.

This one’s coming to the PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S on July 29, 2026, and you can be sure to find us in its bleak world as soon as it drops.

We’ve already spoken about how this one’s combat has us pretty excited to try it out. However, the latest gameplay deep dive from Bellring shows off a world that’s quite suited to apathy and nihilism, while remaining a credible threat thanks to the Gyldenmist. As a Gyldhunter, you’re going to be racing against others of your kind, while a few of you might choose to team up with some of them to gain an advantage.

That isn’t going to amount to much unless you’re spot-on with your chosen class. Do you like to harness the elements to devastate any and all who stand in your way? The Sorcerer is for you. Perhaps you like to hang back in the shadows and strike only when the time is right? The Shadowstrike is going to have you grinning from ear to ear even as you lay down some serious damage. The Seer and Blackarrow are other viable options, each bringing something unique to the table in a gameplay loop that’s going to make you become really good with your chosen class.

If you’re part of a team, things get even better, as one of you could choose to give all your loot to a fellow teammate so you can take a last stand and buy them time to escape the Gyldenmist’s corrupting influence. Be careful of who you trust, though.

All in all, this one’s shaping up to be an extraction RPG that stands out, and does it well. Mistfall Hunter arrives in July for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC.

You play as a Gyldhunter, a being brought to life to navigate the dangers of the Gyldenmist, a dangerous fog that has resulted from a from a divine civil war. You’re going to have to let your weapons do the talking against the enemies you find there, as the reveal trailer (showcased below) is enough evidence to prove that none of them are great at conversation or diplomacy.

Fortunately, you’ve got a few classes of Gyldhunters to choose from, and you get to bring up to three other players along for runs where you think your skills might fail if you take them on solo. With distinct skills and playstyles on each class, finding synergies and making the most of them on the battlefield is going to help you make subsequent adventures a whole lot easier.

It’s making its way to PC (via Steam and the Microsoft Store), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S in July, although a specific release date is yet to be announced at this time.

Zhang also spoke about the lore of Mistfall Hunter, and how the studio has taken pains to sprinkle tiny details about the world all over the game. He noted that some players during the beta tests were already able to piece together some aspects of the lore, including the secrets behind the Gyldenmist.

Looking to the future, Zhang has confirmed that there will be new content and features that will be made available to all Mistfall Hunter players. Among the new content coming to the game is its second playable map—the Solemn Needles. The map has been described as being a bleached and sacred forest where players will also have their first encounter with the Divine Anchor.

Solemn Needles will have a host of new points of interest for players to explore, including the corpse of a giant, dubbed Hastines’s Fall, which is noted as still radiating the power of the gods that resulted in the death of the giant. The Witchery Woods will also have their own secrets to uncover as players get ready to take on the False God.

Mistfall Hunter has been hosting beta tests throughout the year, with April being host to its second beta. Over time, Bellring Games has been testing out a host of different features and gameplay systems for the PvPvE RPG, with beta 2 featuring new scenes and areas that players could explore, like the Ember Iris. Solo mode was also the focus of testing at the time for players that would prefer to go at it alone rather than having to find team mates.

When the second beta had gone live, the studio had written about the importance of needing players to aim their attacks, rather than have the abilities be auto-targetted. They noted that aiming mechanics brings in more skill-based gameplay, which also has the side-effect of increasing the learning curve the game might present to newer players.

The third beta for Mistfall Hunter is still ongoing, but is slated to come to an end later this week. There has been no confirmation yet about whether there will be a fourth beta test or if the studio will instead focus on making its originally-planned 2025 launch window.

The extraction RPG was first announced all the way back in October 2024, and was described as featuring a dark fantasy setting heavily inspired by Nordic myths. In the game, players can choose from a variety of playable classes, each of them having unique abilities that could give them the edge both against computer-controlled enemies in PvE, as well as player-controlled opponents in PvP.

Mistfall Hunter doesn’t yet have an exact release date. The title was originally announced as being slated for release some time this year, however, and is being developed for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
