Soft Source Publishing and Indonesian indie developer Glory Jam have officially announced that the electrifying heavy metal action-roguelite, Grim Trials, is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. The demo for the game is live now on the Nintendo eShop.
Grim Trials is a heavy-metal action roguelite where you craft and customise your own weapons and equipment to embrace Death your own way. Play as Avelin, a young woman who has met an untimely end, and found herself recruited as one of Death’s many Reapers.
Tasked to hunt down impure souls, face her demons, and fight her way through an underworld of her own making, Avelin must endure these trials to become a full-fledged Reaper and see her still-living love once again.
Key Features:
- Craft Your Armament: Build and remix weaponry in real-time. Death isn’t a gift; it’s a tool you build to fit your hands.
- A Heavy Metal Soundscape: Headbang to an original, pulse-pounding soundtrack from an Indonesian metal band, perfectly synced to the rhythm of combat.
- The Trials of Avelin: Experience a poignant story of love, loss, and redemption as you fight through the psychological landscape of a soul in turmoil.
- Nintendo Switch 2 Portability: Play at home or on the go with crisp visuals and refined haptics that let you feel every heavy-metal guitar riff and critical hit.
The Grim Trials demo is available now on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop, as well as on Steam. You can also read our Early Access review of Grim Trials here.
