Overview

About this game



You are Shin, a demon hunter with no memory of his past. After striking an unusual partnership with Lux, a demon with the ability to shapeshift into a sword and manipulate time, you begin a quest to learn what happened to you and your loved ones. Fight brutal battles against terrible demons. Explore a corrupted and dangerous world. Regain what was once yours.



Gameplay Overview
The Demon Sword, Lux, offers a wide array of utilities. Not only can she perform powerful attacks and shield you from harm, but she can also act as a platform and restore objects from the past. Use your demonic companion to survive in a desolate, demon-ridden Osaka.



As Shin defeats demons and levels up, new skills can be unlocked via the skill tree. Unlock the "Warp" skill to travel anywhere on the map or the double-jump skill to get up to higher ledges and explore new locations with ease.



But Lux isn't the only weapon in your arsenal. In addition to firearms, Shin can also wield weapons such as greatswords and whips. Experiment with a variety of armaments and create your own style of combat.



Enjoy the latest metroidvania from Team Ladybug, the team behind such acclaimed titles as "Touhou Luna Nights" and "Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth."

Explore a map far larger than past Team Ladybug projects, filled with side quests that both deepen your connection to and expand upon the world of "Blade Chimera."



The Story
It all began with the sudden appearance of a ghastly demonic horde. Humans fought against ghouls and ghosts in what would later be known as the "Demon War," and the world was changed forever.

Thirty years later, using their expertise in combating demons, a religious group called the "Holy Union" has carved out a small but stable enclave of survivors.
