New Steam Soulslike Puts You in Control of a Sword-Wielding Dog
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
A new Steam soulslike called Stray Dog: nobody cares lets players control a canine protagonist wielding a sword in its jaws to battle through dark fantasy challenges.
The Steam soulslike catalog continues to expand with creative concepts, and Parry Frames Studio is adding a memorable entry to the lineup. Titled Stray Dog: nobody cares, the upcoming action game trades the traditional undead knight for a four-legged protagonist on a mission to rescue its captured master. Armed with a frayed sword gripped in its jaws, the nameless stray must navigate a war-torn kingdom and take on punishing boss fights.
While the perspective is entirely unique, the game retains the core pillars of the genre that players expect. According to details shared by Game Rant, players will utilize familiar combat mechanics including precise parries, stealth kills, backstabs, and powerful special combat arts. Exploration and progression also remain central, with players gathering experience and gold from downed enemies to unlock new skills across intricate levels.
This release fits into a broader industry trend of developers experimenting with unconventional protagonists in challenging action games, following titles like Another Crab's Treasure. Parry Frames Studio has confirmed that the core combat framework is already finished, though a release date has not yet been announced. Players eager to test the studio's action design can check out their previous Berserk-inspired soulslike, Crimson Oath, which is currently available on Steam.
