A spin-off game, Succubus, is now announced and will further expand the story of Agony’s Succubus demon than the core game did
If you have had a chance to play Agony, then you may know about the character known as the Succubus and the little bit you get to play as the demon. It was a little bit but something that Madmind Studio gave us and then left us to the rest of that game. Strangely enough, that was not the end of the story there and now we have word that we are getting a whole spin-off game called Succubus to further explore that demon. I am not sure if that is what the masses were asking for there, but it is now coming and set to hit the PC at some point. No word on if the console games will get to expand on this little story as of yet sadly.
Quite a bit for Succubus is all still in the working phase of things, it was just announced after all, but we do have some interesting concept gameplay to show us where we may be seeing the gameplay go here. What is interesting is that it looks like Succubus will be taking a more direct path with mixing in combat and other direct attacks. It also looks like it will be blending the first-person and third-person cameras in a pretty cool way. At least if this concept gameplay represents anything close to a final project. I know I am digging it so we can see the cool animations for movement but head right back into the FPS style when getting back into the action. Have a look down below.
Succubus — Concept Gameplay
Madmind Studio presents Succubus, a spin-off to our previous game Agony. The game is an action-oriented horror combining dynamic and brutal combat, with an intriguing storyline. Succubus is currently planned to be released on the Steam platform.
The main character of the game is Succubus, a wild and lustful demon. The players were able to learn a part of her story in the original Agony and Agony Unrated, where she received her own single-player campaign.
With the disappearance of the legitimate rulers of Hell, the remaining demons recognized Nimrod as their ruler, because he was the only soul who could dominate the mind of the mighty Beast. By raising his new empire from the corpses of sinners, the new king, along with his new queen Succubus, managed to control the chaos left by the former rulers.
The new title didn’t fit the Succubus. The life of luxury and walking on rugs sewn from the skins of martyrs was not for her though, and so she has chosen a life in the wilderness of Hell.
During her travels, the new queen meets the powerful Baphomet who, together with his army, is going to get the soul of Nimrod. Captured, maimed and betrayed by her own species, the Succubus is left with only one goal that matters — REVENGE!
