[/p][p]Cyanide here, we’re thrilled to finally let you sneak your way into Styx: Blades of Greed with a brand-new playable demo on Steam! This is a limited-time demo (yep, it won’t be around forever), so if you’re itching to sharpen your knives and your wits, now is the perfect moment to jump in.[/p][p][/p][p]Oh, and one more thing before we get into the details:[/p]
The demo is available… right now!
[p][/p][p]TRAILER[/p]
What's in the demo?
[p]This demo gives you access to the very beginning of the game![/p][p]From there, Styx goes back to doing what he does best: slipping through shadows, breaking into places he shouldn’t, and stealing things that definitely don’t belong to him.[/p][p][/p][p]You’ll get to experience:[/p]- [p]The infiltration inside a massive golem attacking Styx to destroy it from the inside, a perfect introduction and tutorial to Styx’s new tricks[/p][/*]
- [p]Styx’s first real mission, a high-risk zeppelin theft under the ever-watchful eye of the Inquisition in the first open environment of the game, The Wall[/p][/*]
Keep your progress in the full game
[p]Good news! Your save from the demo will be fully compatible with the base game on February 19th![/p][p]So if you fall in love with the smell of fresh loot and lurking in the shadows, you’ll be able to pick up your adventure right where you left off when the game launches, no need to start over.

What will be in the full game beyond the demo?
[p]The demo is just the opening chapter of Styx’s new adventure, roughly an hour of gameplay but if you want to poke around, and test every shadow you’ll spend way more time in the demo. Naturally, this slice doesn’t contain everything the full experience has to offer.[/p][p]Since it’s the very beginning of the game, some tools and systems are still out of reach here. You won’t, for example, get your hands on the glider or the grappling hook yet… and that’s on purpose. We’d rather let you discover the full extent of Styx’s tricks, powers, and playgrounds in the final game instead of spoiling them in the demo.
[/p][p]Consider this demo a taste of what’s to come, just enough to whet your appetite, and get you hungry for the full menu.
[/p][p]The full game will include:[/p]
- [p]Three large, open environments to explore and infiltrate in your own way. You'll discover brand new areas of The Wall as you unlock your new tools. You'll be sneaking through the vile orc nest of Turquoise Dawn and the rotting Ruins of Akenash, a twisted version of Styx: Master of Shadows world.[/p][/*]
- [p]Movement tools to unlock new routes and unreachable areas, such as the grappling hook and glider[/p][/*]
- [p]Unlock more upgrades for your tools and powers[/p][/*]
- [p]New Quartz powers, including mind control and time shifting[/p][/*]
- [p]New enemy factions with their own gameplay specificities, including Inquisitors, Orcs, or Elves[/p][/*]
- [p]And above all: fresh infiltration challenges, a full liberty to design your own approaches, and situations to outsmart with Styx’s trademark creativity (and bad attitude)[/p][/*]

A word from the team
[p][/p][p]We’re extremely proud to finally share with you a first glimpse of the final game, coming in a little over a month. This demo is a real milestone for the whole team: the result of years of work on the project, and the long-awaited return of a flagship franchise after almost nine years.[/p][p][/p][p]To everyone who decides to give the demo a try: thank you. Your time, your feedback, and simply your curiosity mean a lot to the team. Seeing players back in Styx’s world after all this time is incredibly rewarding.[/p][p]That said… our work isn’t completely over yet. The final game is coming very soon, and we’re giving it its last finishing touches. In the meantime, it’s still the perfect moment to pre-order the game!
