The 'punishing action RPG' was originally scheduled to release last December for PC only, but a delay announcement in November added a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S release for Thymesia.

There is also a limited-time demo for Thymesia up on Steam that only lasts till May 9. If you want to get a taste of the game, hop on it before the demo ends.

Team17 and OverBorder Studio have also published a new trailer for Thymesia sharing its release date and a handful of gameplay clips showcasing off its intense, visceral combat system.

Team17 and OverBorder Studio have today announced that punishing action-RPG Thymesia will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on 9th August. As the mysterious masked protagonist Corvus, players will battle through the plague-ridden and blood-soaked streets of Hermes against the unforgiving enemies that now inhabit the once-thriving city. Tasked with uncovering the truth and saving Hermes, Corvus will utilise mysterious plague powered weapons reaved from fallen foes and use them to execute devastating attacks as he overcomes seemingly impossible odds and uncovers the truth hidden in his memories.
For players wanting to test their prowess against the forces already wreaking havoc on Hermes ahead of Thymesia’s August launch, a Steam demo is available for a limited time between now and Monday 9th May.
