Lost Soul Aside - Release Date: 5/30/2025

[BrawlMan]

Remember that one game that was inspired by FFXV and Devil May Cry? Got announced back in 2016? Had a couple of trailers, then went on radio silence for about 3 years? No? Well any way, let me get you up to speed. This whole project was developed by one guy, until Sony helped with the funding and got him a team. He still did a lot of the work on his own.

Spoiler: Older Trailers

Isn't the game inspired by FFXV and DMC FFXVI? lol


Either way, this looks hype and I never heard of it, will be keeping tabs onit.

This reminds me of that Wukong monkey game that looked cool.

It is another one of those really cool look concept trailers that will never come out, or if they do they will take so long in development that theyll behind modern game concepts and just be mediocre at best.

Looks like typical China Jank.

Flashy moves but seemingly little substance, also not a fan of pretty yet barren maps.

I do remember the original trailer from back then and my attitude towards it was the same as now; Looks pretty, but that's about as far as it goes.

I'm not expecting the game to exceed my expectations or anything, but I'm just looking for a fun, stylish, Wuxia game. I can see you both your points, but I'm just here for the combat anyway. As much as I love Devil May Cry, Bayo, SOR4, and other 2D and 3D brawler games, I got to mix it up every once in a while. I have a feeling this game it's going to be fine though.

I forget which trailer I saw, but I do remember seeing one of them a few years back.
I can tell this game is gonna have a bad case of "boy I wish I could do what I'm seeing in these cutscenes", but otherwise, this game's definitely my style and I hope it comes together well!

I'm gonna be honest, a lot of the recent and upcoming asian action games are kinda starting to blur together for me. Lies of P, Stellar Blade, Tides of Annihilation, Phantom Blade Zero, Lost Souls Aside...

And I think part of it is because they're all on the Unreal Engine, which has kind of a distinctive look. But also, just something about the art design. It all has that kind of pseudo Nomura Anime bit Realistic look to it

While that is true about using UE5, each game has its own art direction and style. There are clear difference between Lies of P, Phantom Blade 0, LSA, & TOA. Stellar Blade is really the only odd one out, and comes off as third rate Bayonetta and Nier Automata clone in terms of looks.
