'Shadowman: Darque Legacy' Announced for Next-Gen Systems and PC [Trailer]
Fans of the Shadowman series of comics are getting another shot at a video game crossover with Shadowman: Darque Legacy. Developer Blowfish Studios has revealed the game will be headed to the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
In this new “brand-new, out-of-continuity” entry for the series, players will take on the role of novice Shadowman Jack Boniface to defend humanity against the terrors of the Deadside. As a conspiracy threatens to overrun the realm of the living, Shadowman must contend with horrifying inhuman entities. Follow a dark path from the land of the living to the hellish realm of the Deadside as you cross the veil between both, each with their own twisted challenges.
Shadowman: Darque Legacy will feature an “RPG-lite” progression system, along with plenty of melee combat.
Just in case you’re not familiar with the Valiant Comics hero, Shadowman is a lineage of voodoo warriors who protect the world of the living (known as Liveside) from threats crossing over from Deadside. The series’ first entry into video games was 1999’s Shadow Man for the Nintendo 64, PlayStation and Sega Dreamcast. That entry was subsequently remastered by Nightdive Studios back in 2021 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. That was followed by 2002’s Shadow Man: 2econd Coming for the PlayStation 2.
