Dotemu, in collaboration with Guard Crush Games and Supamonks, has excitingly announced the launch of **Absolum**—a thrilling fantasy beat 'em up game infused with roguelite elements. Set in the ravaged world of Talamh, which suffered from a devastating magical cataclysm, the narrative unfolds against a backdrop of fear and oppression. The inhabitants of Talamh live in dread of magic, a fear that the tyrannical ruler, King-Sun Azra, manipulates to enslave mages through his feared Crimson Order.

In this gripping tale, a valiant group of heroes emerges to challenge Azra's tyranny. This eclectic team comprises the necromancer Galandra, the rebellious gnome Karl, the mage Brom, and the enigmatic Sidr. Players will dive into intense action, mastering upgradable abilities, executing powerful combos, and unleashing magical spells to overthrow the oppressive regime.

**Absolum** offers both single-player and cooperative modes, allowing players to synergize their attacks and synchronize their strikes to unleash devastating combinations. Whether you choose to fight solo or team up with friends, the game promises a deeply engaging experience.

Elevating the game's atmosphere is its soundtrack, composed by an ensemble of legendary musicians: Gareth Coker, acclaimed for his work on *Ori* and *Halo Infinite*; Yuka Kitamura, known for her contributions to *Dark Souls* and *Elden Ring*; and Mick Gordon, the mastermind behind the scores of *DOOM Eternal* and *Atomic Heart*. Their combined talents promise a sonic journey that complements the game's dynamic action.

Mark your calendars—**Absolum** is slated for release in 2025, and it will be available on PS4/5, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Get ready to immerse yourself in this epic adventure and join the fight against tyranny in the world of Talamh.
