For those who crave more 2DDark Soulsin their lives, Ska Studios announcedSalt And Sacrificeduring the Summer Game Fest today. The hack ‘n’ slash metroidvania looks very much like its 2016 predecessor,Salt And Sanctuary, but with more character classes, new areas to explore,and my personal favourite: proper online co-op.
