Publisher 505 Games used their debut showcase stream to show off some more of Point Blank Games’ upcoming action RPGStray Blade, along with Forbidden Studios’ supernatural first-person survival gameAmong The Trolls. Stray Blade wasfirst toutedon the Xbox stream at last year’s Gamescom but it’s been in development for several years at the Berlin-based developers. The game stars an anthropologist who’s been sucked through a magic portal and dumped in the ‘Valley of Acrea’ with a little scarf-wearing wolf called Boji for company.

Among The Trolls – Official Announcement Trailer
Among The Trolls is a survival game set in Finland, where you can encounter magical creatures and craft things to placate the spirits of the forest. There weren’t many trolls shown in the 505 Games showcase but, as you can see from the trailer above, the forests looked pleasant. Among The Trolls launches later this year in Early Access onSteam. Also announced at the 505 Games showcase wasMiasma Chronicles, the next tactical post-apocalyptic game fromMutant Year Zerodevs The Bearded Ladies. There’s not much to go on for that one yet, except for a 2023 release date.
505 Games showed off a little of Rabbit and Bear Studios’ sidescrolling JPRGEiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroestoo, which has more than 100 playable characters and is clearly underselling itself with that title. Katharine reviewed Hundred Heroes’ companion game,Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising, feeling it was “definitely not the required must-play you need to absorb beforehand”. It does have a character called CJ though, so it’s got that going for it.
Stray Blade is due out later this year and is wishlistable onSteamand theEpic Games Store. If you’re interested in signing up for the beta then head overhere.
