Karma Exorcist planned for Nintendo Switch

Infini Fun, in partnership with Cyclos, today shared the news about their new project Karma Exorcist. The game will be appearing on Nintendo Switch in the future.

Karma Exorcist is described as “an Eastern mythology-themed side-scrolling Metroidvania action adventure game.” Players will battle demonic forces, gather mystical artifacts, face the Yama Kings and the Ghost Emperors, sever the Karma, and reforge the path of reincarnation.

More information can be found with the following overview:

Inspired by Chinese mythology, this game presents a fresh interpretation of the underworld: good and evil karma function like an invisible magnetic field, influencing the balance of the Three Realms. When evil karma spreads, disasters follow. To counter this, gods and buddhas gradually established the underworld—with Meng Po Soup (Potion of Oblivion) to erase memories, the Eighteen Levels of Hell to punish guilty souls, and more—all to maintain the cycle of existence. Here, you will explore a world of the dead that feels both familiar and strange.

Key Features

• Free Exploration, Multiple Paths – From the shores of the River of Forgetfulness adorned with fields of red spider lilies, to the endless deserts beyond the Ghost Gate, the serene Naihe Bridge, the magnificent Hall of Kings, and the distinct peaks of the Five Ghost Emperor Mountains—most of this kingdom of the dead is open for you to freely explore. There is never just one path to the ending; hidden stories and areas await discovery as you adventure onward.
• Dynamic Combat, React, and Adapt – Wield a 360-degree Chain Hook alongside dashes, double jumps, rolls, and combat artifacts to outmaneuver enemies in fast-paced battles. Numerous monsters feature unique combat mechanics that demand keen observation and careful responses. Each boss encounter is meticulously designed with distinct styles, delivering intense and thrilling duels where you react and adapt—culminating in the supreme satisfaction of overcoming powerful foes.
• Myriad Artifacts, Shape Your Destiny – Collect various artifacts during your journey, each with its own unique combat module, allowing you to mix and match freely. Equip multiple Soul Gems to create a combat style that is uniquely yours. Additionally, utilize consumables such as talismans and elixirs to aid your travels through this perilous underworld.
