Cyanide Studio has released a new gameplay trailer for Styx: Blades of Greed, showcasing third-person stealth action mechanics and environmental traversal.
Fans of dedicated stealth games have a new project to keep on their radar. Cyanide Studio has dropped an official gameplay trailer for Styx: Blades of Greed, offering a fresh look at the upcoming third-person action adventure. The footage showcases the titular goblin protagonist navigating intricate environments, utilizing verticality, and relying on classic sneak mechanics to outwit enemies instead of just brute-forcing every encounter.
For a genre that has seen fewer AAA entries lately, the return of the Styx series is a welcome sight for players who enjoy careful planning, trap-setting, and environmental assassination over mindless combat. Modern gaming landscapes often favor fast action, so seeing a title lean into deliberate pacing and specialized tools provides a nice change of pace for single-player enthusiasts.
As development continues, community attention will likely focus on how the level design supports emergent stealth gameplay and whether the progression loops offer enough depth for today's players. You can watch the full gameplay trailer over at IGN South Africa to see the new mechanics in action and judge the stealth pacing for yourself.
