“KILL KNIGHT goes for this gory, hellish look paired with retro aesthetics that give it a lot of life.”

“All Killer, No Filler”

“Playing Kill Knight is a whirling dervish of death, a high-speed mix of swords and gunplay, counters, and supercharged screen clears.”
IGN

About This Game

Once a loyal knight, betrayed, and banished to the Abyss. A desecrated corpse inside reanimated armor. You rise to an eternal death. Branded KILL KNIGHT, you have one purpose - KILL THE LAST ANGEL.

FIVE ELDRITCH LAYERS

KILL, OR BE KILLED

Dance with death in the Abyss, and unveil intricate layers of gameplay lurking beneath the surface. Exploit enemy weaknesses, enact brutal executions, weave through your arsenal to tactically manage resources, and unleash destructive wrath blasts to turn the tide. Every encounter is testament to your mastery.

KILL KNIGHT’s polished, minimalist aesthetic, and retro visuals pay homage to the neon-soaked arcades and shooters of the 90’s. Set across five relentless, hand-crafted eldritch arenas, KILL KNIGHT embraces lo-fi brutalism and revels in the dread and dream-like ruins that surround your descent into the Abyss.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

There is frequent violence present in the game as the protagonist defends himself against many enemies.

The combat is fantastical and not very realistic, however there is a lot of blood displayed & so this game may not be suitable for younger audiences.
