Elden Ring Nightreign

A standalone spin-off in the Elden Ring world that turns the formula into short, structured expeditions. You play as a class in third person, fight through dangerous areas and bosses, and get stronger during each run. It is built mainly for co-op with up to three players, but can be played solo.

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

A first-person open-world RPG in a dark fantasy take on the Arthurian legend. You explore a grim, decaying land, fight in action combat and shape your character and the story through your choices. The focus is on atmosphere and a narrative-driven journey.

Doom: The Dark Ages

A single-player first-person shooter, set as a prequel to Doom (2016) in a medieval-flavored dark fantasy world. The combat is heavier and more grounded, with a shield you can use to block and parry. You also get melee weapons and vehicles, and the story explores the Slayer origins.
