Sony has announced The godslayera new steampunk fantasy role-playing game (RPG) from My time in Portia studio, Pathea Games.
Coming soon to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC, The godslayer is an Eastern-inspired third-person open-world game featuring customizable elemental combat and a 40-hour campaign set in a world ruled by gods known as Celestials.
“Long ago, divine celestials created the human world and all living things in it, designing everything to cultivate a powerful force known as ‘Qi’ to fuel their eternal lives. In this new era, humanity has learned to channel that same qi energy into elemental powers, wielding fire, water, earth, metal and wood through fluid martial art,” the description reads.
“Outraged that their divine energy is being used by mere mortals, the Celestials set a brutal example for humanity by conquering the strongest kingdom on earth in a single night, hunting and killing the king and the kingdom’s Elemancers. An event remembered as the Fall of God.”
In the story, you play as an Elemancer, an elemental magic user named Cheng, who embarks on a journey to wipe out the Celestials after losing his family. A new CGI trailer was also released, which you can watch below.

First revealed as part of Sony Interactive Entertainment’s China Hero Project at ChinaJoy in 2023, The godslayer It’s much darker in tone than Pathea’s previous life simulation games.
Featuring free-form role-playing gameplay, the game also offers fully customizable elemental abilities that allow players to combine water, earth, metal, and fire to create powerful attacks and weaponry, an explorable capital city and an urban metropolis called Zhou, quests that can be tackled in multiple ways, factions, and more.
“Thematically, The godslayer is a big departure from what Pathea is known for, namely the My Time series,” said Zifei Wu, founder and creative director of Pathea. “However, we have created several open-world RPGs before, filled with beloved characters and varied systems for players to experience and thrive.
“The godslayer “It has all that and more with our talented development team attempting something darker and more serious in tone, bolstered by exciting elemental combat at its core.”
The godslayer It doesn’t have a release window yet, but it’s available to wishlist on Steam.
