3D Realms :

AALBORG, Denmark – Oct. 10, 2024 – 3D Realms and Point N’ Sheeps’ acclaimed 2D Souls-like action-adventure game Bloodless launches on Nintendo Switch today for £13.49 / €14.99! Take Bakugawa back from Shogun Akechi with counter-based non-lethal combat, leaving disarmed foes in your wake, reclaiming your land from the bloodied hands of the shogun.
 

In Bloodless, ronin Tomoe has sworn to never draw blood again, so you’ll engage armed enemies with nothing but her fists to disarm them in hard-hitting combat. Customize your playstyle and master the use of the dash counter to bring foes to their knees.
 

Bloodless first debuted earlier this year on Steam, with players and critics alike praising the game’s action, storytelling and art style. Explore a beautiful pixel-art world as you battle to free Bakugawa from the rule of Shogun Akechi.


Key Features
 

  • Unique Non-Lethal Combat: Tomoe has sworn not to take another life – master a combination of disarming counters and powerful ki-attacks to defeat your enemies.

  • Depth & Customization: Use special ki techniques for unique combos, as well as enhancements from crests and herb infusions you’ll find across the land of Bakugawa.

  • Striking Environments: Explore the sacred natural environments and oppressed districts of Bakugawa, which suffers under a violent and corrupt military regime.

  • Emotional Storytelling: Seen as a coward and deserter in the eyes of her own people, Tomoe must return to her former land to spark the hope and courage Bakugawa needs to fight back.

  • Extra Challenges: Push your skills to the limit by collecting Warrior Idols scattered throughout Bakugawa and unlocking the Arenas.
