The time has come…

GRIME releases Monday, August 2nd! We know how excited you all are (especially after the Steam Next Fest Demo blew up!) and cannot wait for the game to make it into your hands. If you’ve spent any time in our Steam Discussion forums, you’ve probably seen the game’s director, Yarden Weissbrot pop up to talk about bugs or certain mechanics. He included a little message for the fans with the announcement!

“The world of GRIME was one that I’ve always wanted to experience in my gaming. You’ll see inspirations from my favorite games like Legacy of Kain and Salt & Sanctuary – almost like an amalgamation of all my favorite gaming inspirations and memories packaged in a playable experience.” Our friends over at IGN are showing off our most recent trailer. Take a look!

Features
