“We’re grateful for the opportunity to finally share that Godbreakers will be arriving on PC and Playstation 5 this October 23rd,” said Jugo Mirkovic, CEO and Executive Producer at To The Sky in a press release. “Our goal has always been to create a game that’s immediately fun to pick up, while opening up for players to uncover depth the more they experiment. With responsive combat, cancelable actions, and abilities that you can combine in countless ways, we hope fans of hack-n-slash and roguelite games will find plenty of room to push the limits and experience those sweaty palm moments that we cherish. We’re excited to see the creative builds and strategies players discover once the game is in your hands this October 23rd”.

In Godbreakers, players are vessels of humanity, brought back by celestial beings to destroy the Monad, an unbound artificial intelligence.
