Skul: The Hero Slayer Launches Feb. 19 on Steam

Lose your head or gain a few, in this darling indie action platformer

SEATTLE – Feb. 6, 2020 | Skul:The Hero Slayer, the action-packed rogue-lite 2D platformer published by NEOWIZ and developed by SouthPAW Games, will be released on Steam Early Access Feb. 19. Additionally, Skul will be available for hands-on demos at PAX East 2020 in Boston, Feb. 27 to Mar. 1.

“Skul is no ordinary skeleton, and we can’t wait to share him with the world,” said Sang Woo Park, CEO of SouthPAW Games. “We’ll be actively collaborating with our community throughout Early Access to utilize their valued feedback as we reveal new content including new levels and bosses, additional playable characters, and more.”

Skul tells the tale of a diminutive, yet powerful skeleton that goes on a quest to save his King from captivity. In his path stands the dastardly Caerleon Empire and a famed group of Adventurers who would like nothing more than to wipe out Skul and his Demon brethren once and for all. But Skul has something special up his sleeve, the ability to transform into an array of different characters by changing his skull. Each character has its own unique attack combos and abilities, which provides dynamic gameplay and tons of replay value.

The Early Access version will support English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and German, with additional languages to be available at full release.
