Absolum

Absolum comes from publisher Dotemu and developers Dotemu, Guard Crush Games, and Supamonks. The game released on October 9, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch. Players fight in the world of Talamh because Sun King Azra has banned magic. As a result, a band of rebels rises to bring it back.

À propos du jeu

Absolum is a rogue ’em up, so arcade beat ’em up combat meets roguelite runs. First, players chain rapid combos and cast spells against Azra’s elite guard. Then magical counters and rare items help turn the tide, so timing matters as much as raw speed. Meanwhile, every run offers multiple paths to explore and unpredictable encounters. As a result, no two attempts play out the same way.

Between runs, players also unlock items, complete quests, and earn permanent upgrades. Additionally, they can mix different skill combinations to create new strategies. The story follows rebels who defy the Crimson Order, but the path leads to a clash with Azra himself. Because the stages are hand-crafted, the world of Talamh feels distinct from one level to the next.

Caractéristiques principales

Four Fighters: Players first choose from four uniquely powerful heroes, each with a distinct style. Brome, a Mowlaï born with magical prowess, also joins the cast.
Roguelite Runs: Branching paths, quests, and challenging bosses also keep each run fresh. Therefore, replay value comes from the choices players make along the way.
Co-op Play: Two players can also team up locally or online. Additionally, the game offers full controller support for couch sessions.
Distinct Art Style: Supamonks, the animation studio behind Rabbids Invasion: Mission to Mars, also co-created the universe and cast. Consequently, the visuals stand apart from other beat ’em ups.
