Bear Games is today proud to announce Comix Zero – a Soulslike open-world platformer set on the pages of an action-packed live comic book. Players must survive in a world where every fight is a struggle and every joke has a punchline. You’re not a hero. You’re nobody. You're Zero.
Drawing inspiration from titles such as Elden Ring, Comix Zone and Super Metroid, Ukrainian studio, Bear Games, has added a unique twist to Comix Zero’s action role-playing elements by introducing a world that comes alive across the pages of a comic book.
Key Features
● Play on the pages of a comic book
A dazzling array of comics will spring to life right on your screen. Each scene unfolds over several pages, with everything comic fans love: panels, speech bubbles, onomatopoeia (POW! BAM! BANG!), author text, and more…
● Non-linear open world
Go where you want - but be careful, because the world is full of dangers. Comix Zero combines elements of metroidvania with a truly open world that's easy to get lost in - so draw yourself a map!
● Fights and dying
Being immortal has its advantages, but mastering your skill set is crucial. Comix Zero's combat system is focused on thinking through strategy, evaluating opponents' weaknesses, and combining different types of attacks — you won't be able to blindly poke buttons here…
● Your very own Zero
Customize Zero's abilities and gear to suit your own play style. Drink potions brewed from defeated bosses, craft powerful artifacts, complete quests from NPCs, and earn rewards.
● True dark fantasy
A brutal world where ancient myths are intertwined with humanity's insatiable love of war, and where magic is created by human blood on human skin. Each side of the conflict has its own motivations and allies, and you’re right in the middle of the action, caught in the crossfire.
● Jokes - to the point and not so much
Comix Zero's narrative is full of multifaceted characters, political intrigue, morally ambiguous choices, and traumatic experiences. Unsure of whether this is all some kind of twisted dream Zero doesn’t hold back with his dubious sense of humor.
Comix Zero doesn’t currently have a release date but the developers are planning to release the game across PC, PS5, Xbox, Switch
