COVENANT Announced

Legion Studio announces COVENANT, an action game with a dark fantasy theme and a religion storyline coming to Steam with a TBA release window. Its ambitious description calls it a first-person fighting game, spellcaster, and shooter with campaign, co-op, and PVP, but buried in the details is the "soulslike" tipoff. In this "you play as a messenger sent from above," who bears no resemblance to any angel imagery we can recall, spreading the word of god through martial arts, secret magic, and ancient weapons. The Official Reveal Trailer features glimpses of gameplay and teases the concept, bragging that the team includes veterans of every game ever. Here's word:
Experience Creation through the eyes of the last living messenger - a warrior angel sent to carry out the will of the Composers. The oldest of your kind, Malach, has fallen to the abyss - leaving in his wake a trail of destruction. You must follow in the footsteps of his final days in order to uncover the nature of his fall - and in doing so, reveal the slumbering forces hidden within Creation.
