Developer and publisher The Astronauts has officially announced that the first-person shooter game Witchfire, which was initially revealed six years ago, will be launched in early access on Epic Games Store on September 20. In addition, a brand new gameplay trailer for the game was also revealed during today's Summer Game Fest 2023.
According to The Astronauts, Witchfire is a first-person shooter set in a grimdark fantasy world in which a deadly war rages between powerful witches and the Church. In this alternate reality, witches are very real and very dangerous— but so is the witch hunter, also known as a preyer. Armed by Vatican sorcerers, players wield an ungodly array of guns and forbidden magic as they combat dark terrors on behalf of their shadowy benefactors.
