It’s easy, seamless, and fast to summon a random ally, or join a random host and together embark on a perilous expedition. Drawing inspiration from the Souls series, we also implemented summoning mechanics.

Salt and Sacrifice even takes a page from Sekiro with a new grappling hook designed for traversing the game’s open world. Unlike Sanctuary, which only awarded progress to the main player, Salt and Sacrifice allows both players to share progress. The player character can customize their skills and equipment to fit their own personal play style. Players must heal between encounters just like in the original Dark Souls series. The game puts an emphasis on gigantic boss battles and crushing difficulty with its slow and methodical combat. Players control a single character who wields medieval weapons in a quest to defeat bosses and hordes of enemies.

Salt and Sacrifice continues the spirit of its predecessor as a two-dimensional soulslike game that sticks close to estbalished genre conventions. Salt and Sacrifice could see further console releases after its initial release date, but for now, players will need a computer or PlayStation console to enjoy Salt and Sacrifice at launch. The game will be released for PC on the Epic Games Store as well.

The original game was released on several platforms including Xbox and Switch, but new funding from Sony has limited the game to just PlayStation consoles. Salt and Sacrifice will be available on all of the following platforms on its release date:
