Worldless is a stylized metroidvania platformer that offers players a distinctive turn-based action combat system. The game also incorporates RPG-style upgrades and presents a captivating high-concept story for players to unravel on their own.

In terms of combat, Worldless requires players to strategize their moves in a turn-based fashion, but it also introduces real-time action elements through timing-based mechanics when defending and executing attacks. Additionally, the game features an elaborate skill tree that not only enhances combat encounters but also opens up new possibilities for players to explore the atmospheric world within the game.

The game takes place in an undefined time period where the laws of existence are not clearly defined. Within this abstract setting, players will encounter entities with conflicting objectives. One group is focused on preserving its nature, while the other aims to eliminate it. This clash of interests naturally leads to conflict, as both sides strive for transcendence. Players will become deeply involved in this battle, left to interpret the enigmatic storyline of the game and its underlying themes of personal development and self-awareness.

Worldless is set to launch for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on 21 November 2023. Visit the official website for more info.
