This first-person shooter will be available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Microsoft Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch on January 26th. Get ready to immerse yourself in a magical kingdom with a twist of old school retro gaming.
Witch Rise brings a unique and refreshing perspective to the FPS genre. While fans of old school classics will enjoy the familiarity of gameplay, the game also introduces new challenges and a fast-paced environment to keep players on the edge of their seats. The vibrant and colorful graphics are a departure from traditional dark and gritty FPS games, making Witch Rise a non-violent and family-friendly option for gamers of all ages.
In this game, players take on the role of a young girl who is a natural at magic. However, her skills catch the attention of an old Witch who becomes jealous of the young apprentice. In a fit of rage, the old Witch casts a spell turning the girl into a little pig. Now, players must guide the transformed girl through four different biomes, each with its own unique challenges and enemies, to retrieve four magic staffs and break the spell.
With the option to explore the biomes in any order, players can tailor their gaming experience to their preferences. Along the way, they can also level up and increase their character’s strength by finding and using items scattered throughout the game. The cute and colorful 2D pixelated graphics give Witch Rise a charming look, while the 3D world creates a sense of immersion.
To aid players on their quest, there are four different stores located in each biome where they can purchase useful items and some unique goodies as well. With a variety of weapons to choose from, including swords, melee weapons, and magical staffs, players must strategically plan their attacks to defeat the boss at the end of each biome.
Witch Rise may seem like a simple FPS game at first glance, but it offers a subtle mix of genres that presents a new challenge for players. The game has 80 rooms spread across four different biomes, ensuring that players will always have something new to explore and discover. The medieval fantasy theme adds an extra layer of magic and excitement to the game, making it a must-try for all gaming enthusiasts.
So mark your calendars for January 26th and get ready to embark on a magical journey with Witch Rise. Explore the world, defeat enemies, purchase goodies, and level up in this one-of-a-kind FPS game. Don’t miss out on the chance to experience a blast from the past with a modern twist.
