Blighted Gameplay
Blighted is an isometric metroidvania game that emphasizes challenging, fast-paced combat. On top of unleashing deadly combos and finishers with melee attacks, players will have access to more powerful skills as they defeat more enemies and absorb their memories. They can also collect a variety of power-ups and valuable information about the game’s world and storyline as they explore different biomes.
The hero’s own Blight will also serve as the game’s own dynamic difficulty system. Depending on the intensity of the Blight, players may encounter more difficult maps and enemies.
