What does the trailer show? In the first minute of the trailer, you are introduced to the main character, the one without a mask. Game director Stoyan Stoyanov explains some of the innovations that were made along with the switch to Unreal Engine 5.
The following character features are introduced to you:
Changing the mask seems to work smoothly in the game – at least in the imagination you can see how the character puts his hand in front of his face and, after a bright light, wears a new mask. However, it is not yet clear how the mask change will fit into the gameplay.
The developers also present the character’s fighting style and how much his movements benefit from motion capture. The gameplay has been heavily revised because the developers want to offer a good and smooth gaming experience in addition to the interesting concept.
The trailer shows some small battle excerpts with various attacks that promise exactly that: fluid and clear movements that mesh well with each other.
The following gameplay features are presented:

Ultimately, the trailer gives you an insight into the sunny setting of the game, which was edited with Unreal Engine 5. For example, you can see flooded ruins, Mediterranean fields and towns, colorful murals and a coast full of shipwrecks.
Among other things, you will be introduced to the first play area, the town of Quinta, with a beautiful interplay of sun and shade.
Especially in these last minutes of the trailer it becomes clear what the developers mean when they talk about a more colorful and brighter Soulslike. The colors you expect when you think of a sunny and Mediterranean Italy can be seen everywhere.
