First-person action adventure game BLACKTAIL will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam this winter, publisher Focus Entertainment and developer The Parasight announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Focus Entertainment:
BLACKTAIL is a surreal first-person action adventure game, where the story of Baba Yaga comes to life. Explore an original take on Slavic folklore and forge your own legend. Become either the guardian of the woods, or the terror nightmares are made of.
Become the guardian of the woods or the terror nightmares are made of—You play as Yaga, a 16-year-old girl accused of witchcraft and expelled from an early medieval Slavic settlement. When living memories of her past return as foul, walking spirits, Yaga is faced with no other option than to hunt them down in hopes of unraveling her own mystery.
Bringing a one-of-a-kind blend of intense archery combat, magic, and dark storytelling set in a vibrant fairy tale world, the game takes you on the defining journey of an ambiguous folk figure. Will you be a good witch and protect the forest? Or will you be the evil that haunts children’s nightmares? Only you can decide.
