Deal | This action RPG, set in a dark fantasy universe and loved by 84% of players, is 65% off on Steam

Heretical is an action RPG with roguelike mechanics set in a dark fantasy universe. Developed by Three Swords Studio, it is currently available for $5.24 with a 65% discount. 

Its story unfolds around Sanctora Mountain. The demigod Abidan rules the people with an iron fist and wants to maintain control of the mines. However, a mysterious entity guides the heroes who have come in search of absolution.

Thus, to enter Abidan's realm, you’ll need to choose one of the eight available heroes and follow a path as mysterious as it is dangerous. Indeed, defeat is part of the game, as it will allow you to unlock new characters, skills, and weapons.

Every run is different, and every hero has their own unique characteristics. The items will change, as will your strategy. However, your goal will always be the same, because you’ll have to dethrone Abidan at the summit of this mountain. And to do that, you’ll need to defeat the bosses that stand in your way.

Heretical is praised for its replay value, which allows players to discover different builds. Its dark fantasy world has also been well received. However, some players have mentioned balance issues, particularly during fights. 

Numerous bugs have been reported. Furthermore, it is still in Early Access, and its development has been significantly delayed. Despite this, out of 1,044 reviews, 84% are positive. As for its price, this sale ends on October 19, 2026, and it will go back to $14.99 according to SteamDB.
