Weird Johnny Studio, known for their work on Hero Tale, has recently announced their latest project, Last Mage, a grimdark bullet heaven game set to release by the end of 2025. In Last Mage, players take on the role of the last surviving mage in a world where magic is forbidden and its practitioners are hunted down. Trapped in a dungeon and facing imminent death, your survival hinges on your magical abilities.
Your mission is to delve deeper into this foreboding dungeon, combating hordes of monstrous creatures with your spells. To enhance your chances of survival, you'll need to gather ancient artifacts that allow you to upgrade your magical prowess. Managing your mana efficiently is crucial, as running out at a critical moment could spell your doom.
In addition to the standard bullet heaven gameplay, Last Mage introduces an innovative inventory management system. Different backpacks you unlock throughout the game affect your storage capacity and organization, compelling you to strategically select and arrange your equipment to optimize your loadout.
Last Mage combines elements reminiscent of Vampire Survivors and Backpack Battles, offering a unique blend of intense action and tactical inventory management. Keep an eye out for a more specific release date as we approach 2025.
