Earthblade Story
In terms of story, the trailer gives very little to go off, other than that our name is Névoa and we can seemingly travel through portals to different realms or areas.
The character at the beginning of the showcase describes it as traveling through “fate”, but it seems we’ll have to wait until closer to the release for more details.
It’s clear our goal is to traverse the harsh and punishing landscape, battling any foes we meet on the way, but for the time being, Névoa’s quest is a mystery.
Earthblade Platforms
For now, the only platform Earthblade is confirmed to be releasing on is PC via Steam. However, as with Celeste, it’s possible the title arrives on console at a later date.
