Astor: Blade of the Monolith release date

A release date has now come in for Astor: Blade of the Monolith. Today, publisher tinyBuild and developer C2 Game Studio confirmed that the title is dropping on May 30, 2024.

Astor: Blade of the Monolith, which was announced last June, was originally known as Monolith: Requiem of the Ancients. It was initially given an early 2024 release window.

Everything you need to know can be found in the following overview:

Explore the vibrant planet of Gliese, once inhabited by an ancient race, and now home to their sentient creations – the Diokek. After the ancients’ disappearance, the Diokek lived in peace until malevolent creatures, the Hiltsik, started wreaking havoc among their settlements. With threats of a more sinister force at play, Astor – a young Diokek warrior, must journey across Gliese to solve the mysterious disappearance of his creators thousands of years ago, believing that they may have left behind the key to their salvation.

Inspired by Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, and The Legend of Zelda, Astor: Blade of the Monolith features fierce fighting mechanics and wondrous exploration. Learn new attacks, abilities and combos, use runic power to summon powerful constructs in combat, and collect legendary weapons as you crush hordes of enemies.
