About
Phantom Hellcat is a dynamic action-adventure game with showy combos in a theatrical setting. When demons kidnap Jolene’s mother, the teenager must take the stage and save her—but in the world of plays and props, things are not always what they appear to be.
A mysterious theater holds a sinister secret: demons imprisoned inside, guarded by a lonely overseer. When one of the seals loses its power, evil forces abduct their guardian to another dimension. All that’s left behind is her rebellious daughter, Jolene.
Though her mother’s craft is a tough act to follow, Jolene must master it in no time. She must use magic masks to navigate through different deadly plays to upstage a mysterious Trickster and save her family.
Jump into dynamic hack-and-slash combat in vibrant but treacherous fantasy worlds interwoven with a theatrical setting. Slide, dash, and push forward to reach a grand finale.
