You tell me that a new 2D action-RPG is coming out with 16-bit graphics and chip-tune music and I’m there. Aggelos is a new game from PQube, LookAtMyGame and developer Wonderboy Bobi that plans on throwing you into a world filled with nostalgia like retro adventures such as Wonder Boy In Monster World. The gameplay looks fun and exciting as you can see by the trailer below! It’s now out on PC and will be hitting consoles later this year.
Step through time and discover a mesmerizing new action-RPG that looks like it was plucked straight out of the 16-bit era but plays like a modern-day marvel. Inspired by non-linear Japanese retro adventures such as Wonder Boy In Monster World, Aggelos hurls players into the middle of a colossal struggle for survival as beings from another dimension threaten to invade the peaceful Kingdom of Lumen.
Bursting with secrets and side-quests, and boasting slick melee combat that any 2D action game would envy, Aggelos is the perfect combination of retro style and modern-day game design.
