Weird Johnny Studio, the creative minds behind Hero Tale, have just unveiled their latest project, Last Mage—a grimdark, bullet heaven game that promises intense action and survival elements. In Last Mage, you step into the role of the titular character, navigating through hordes of monsters in a desperate bid to survive the dungeon's depths.
Set in a world where magic is forbidden and its practitioners have been nearly eradicated, you play as the Last Mage, sentenced to perish within a dungeon. Your only hope lies in your magical abilities, which you'll need to master to fend off the gruesome fate that awaits.
Your journey will take you deeper into the darkest dungeon (yes, pun intended), where you must confront and destroy the monstrous inhabitants. To aid your survival, you'll collect ancient artifacts to upgrade your magical powers. Managing your mana effectively is crucial, ensuring you never run dry at critical moments.
BackpackingWhile the bullet heaven genre is known for its fast-paced action, Last Mage introduces a unique twist with inventory management. Different backpacks, which you can unlock, affect your carrying capacity and organization. You'll need to strategically manage your equipment and fine-tune your loadout to maximize the space available.
Last Mage is slated for release by the end of 2025, with a more precise date to be announced soon. If the blend of Vampire Survivors' bullet heaven mechanics and the inventory management of Backpack Battles intrigues you, keep an eye out for further updates.
