After years of hype, Palworld launched in early access and took the gaming scene by storm. Since its January 19 arrival, it\u2019s sold over 8,000,000 copies and reached an absurd player count of over 2,000,000, surpassing Counter-Strike and even Cyberpunk 2077. Safe to say, Palworld has opened the eyes of the gaming industry, as not every game has to be a complex work of art to capture the attention of many. The developer has shared a roadmap of what\u2019s to come, with plenty of fixes and additions that\u2019ll make players happy. The publisher aims to keep the hits rolling, with a surprise debut of its upcoming roguelite, Never Grave: The Witch and the Curse. Pocketpair debuts Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse looks to build on the popular Metroidvania formula with roguelite elements. Boasting a similar art style to Hollow Knight, players assume the role of a witch on a quest for revenge. Expect to gain skills and access to magic galore while progressing through the game. As the description states, \u201cDeath is only the beginning,\u201d as it\u2019ll likely take some time to complete your objective. However, Never Grave separates itself from fellow Metroidvanias with base building, something Palworld has a large amount of. There\u2019s also coop, as shown in the trailer, where three other players join and control fallen foes, help with village rebuilding, and more. There\u2019s no release date for Never Grave, but the Steam page lists a Q1 2024 early access release window. The demo is up for grabs now via Steam as well. Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse clearly showcases its Palworld influences, and with a release somewhat imminent, it\u2019ll be interesting to see if magic strikes twice for Pocketpair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Palworld creator debuts roguelite title Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse SteamPalworld\u2019s creators are already locked in on its next big project, a roguelite titled Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse.
