AdventureQuest 8-Bit: Dungeons & DoomKnights launching worldwide on Nintendo Switch and Steam next Thursday, Jan. 25
A special collector’s edition of the crowdfunded NES classic, AdventureQuest 8-Bit: Dungeons & DoomKnights is set to launch worldwide on Steam and Nintendo Switch next Thursday, January 25!
NOT JUST A ROM IN A SHINY WRAPPER
Explore a massively pixelated world and go face-to-face with vampires, ghosts, deathknights, liches, ancient evils, giant flying eyeballs, chicken cows, and more in this humorous take on retro platforming action.
Developed by Artix Entertainment and published by Nami Tentou, AdventureQuest 8-Bit: Dungeons & DoomKnights is packed with bonus game modes and goodies that make it the truly ultimate version of the game. Two additional games within the game (!), three Chaos mods, several color palettes, and a lovely CRT filter are just the beginning.
A HERO’S JOURNEY
When the young hero, Artix, returns from passing the trials to become a Paladin, he finds his home destroyed by an army of the undead – and realizes that his people have disappeared. Artix swears to save them, find the DoomKnight responsible, and ultimately kill it. Will you help Artix defeat the evil undead – or become their new master?
