Curator Review

“思来想去,《冥界契约》这款游戏的底子十分不错,像是个中规中矩的高材生,为了不让玩家感到恶心努力修改着。但是想要被玩家所喜爱成为热门肉鸽,他所缺少的那一分便是“偶然”,缺少一夜暴富的偶然、缺少一刀砍boss 999滴血的偶然。从更新表不难看出作者更新准则主要在于“堆量”,但实际上这种方法是吃力不讨好的,因为堆量并不意味着老玩家有心思会重新体验一番新增的几小时内容。而且作者本身更新得也糟心。”

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a two-person development team, we are deeply committed to ensuring Netherworld Covenant meets community expectations. By launching in Early Access, we aim to collaborate closely with the community, gathering feedback to refine and expand the game. Every piece of feedback will shape the journey—we want players to feel like active participants in the game’s evolution.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate the Early Access phase will last 3–6 months. During this period, we plan to make additional chapters and systems while continuously optimizing existing content based on player insights.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add new chapters and additional combat difficulty tiers. What's more, we plan to further expand roguelike build diversity: new relics, auras, weapons, and enhanced skill progression mechanics.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version already offers 4 full chapters with 2 elite bosses and 1 final boss per chapter, 9 main weapons, 4 sub-weapons, and 100+ skill combinations with a conservative 8-10 hours of playtime via core content and progression systems.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The final price may increase post–Early Access, depending on the actual scope of added content and actual development duration.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to place great importance on the frequency of communication with the community and actively consider feedback from players. Players can share their feedback through official community channels, Steam forum, emails, surveys, and by playing the game. Additionally, we plan to continuously monitor feedback and suggestions from other online forums and adjust our development content and priorities accordingly.”

Reviews

“Transforming the core action RPG experience from games like Diablo or Path of Exile into a roguelike might sound very difficult. Yet Netherworld Covenant is a game that manages to successfully do that and even better”
SoftPedia

“Netherworld Covenant captures the feeling of a Dark Souls game in both its grim worldbuilding and presentation, as well as its fast-paced, reflex-demanding combat mechanics. The game can easily make you feel punished or supremely powerful based on your build, playstyle, and mastery of its mechanics.”
Try Hard Guides

“Netherworld Covenant est clairement le type d’accès anticipé que j’apprécie : une vraie proposition, un contenu day one conséquent, une production optimisée et un un plan de vol déjà en partie annoncé.”
IGN France

Roadmap for Early Access

About This Game

Netherworld Covenant is a dark fantasy 3D isometric action roguelike centered on precision combat and Soul Companion powers to deliver a hardcore, strategically rich experience. Control the survivor of a catastrophic disaster, wielding the Nether Lantern—a forbidden artifact bridging the mortal realm and the netherworld—to forge pacts with the souls of deceased allies. Venture into procedurally generated labyrinths to challenge corrupted heroes and demonic lords.

The Beauty of Precision

Combat prioritizes tactical mastery over frenetic combos. Parry, dodge, and execute Ethereal Dash to evade attacks, then counter with lethal strikes. Every decision—timing, resource allocation, and positioning—deepens the strategic depth of encounters.

Bound by Souls, Empowered by the Dead

The Soul Companion system offers diverse combat strategies, featuring four distinct spectral allies: Swordsman, Ranger, Guardian, and Rogue. Harness their abilities to phase through obstacles, ambush foes from the netherworld, or evade fatal blows by shifting dimensions.

Corrupted Legends Await 

Face bosses twisted by malevolent soul energy—fallen lords, once-noble knights, primordial demons, and entities lurking in the dimensional void.

Sanctuary at the Edge of Realms

At the borderland camp between worlds, gather spectral allies, forge weapons tainted with demonic blood, stockpile resources, and piece together the truth behind calamity through fragmented dialogues. Will you redeem your comrades’ souls or remain stuck between life and death?

“The Torch’s light reveals no path to salvation, only the shadow of a gamble: as spectral forces tear through demonic throats, the wielder’s name may yet become another epitaph on the Covenant Stone.”
