Summary

Bridged by love for coffee and a ghost story that’s impossible to ignore, Drinkbox Studios returns with Blighted—a 3D Metroidvania set in an era of cosmic collapse, where players fight to control and fend off the blights that corrupt them while uncovering secrets. Combining solo and co-op gameplay, the title features monsters, intrigue, and maybe even some brain-eating fun. This is Drinkbox at their unpredictable best, with a narrative as surreal as the games they’ve already made, like *Guacamelee!* or *Severed*.
