The Last Oricru is a new soulslike action RPG set in a war-torn world featuring science fiction and fantasy elements. The developers aim to impress with a strong story and promise that every decision you make will influence the narrative. To uncover all the secrets of the game world, you will likely need to play through the story more than once.
What is the setting of The Last Oricru? The game takes place on Wardenia. The world is marked by conflict and captivates with a mix of fantasy and science fiction elements.
Three factions are at war with each other, and as a player, you find yourself caught between the front lines after waking up in a rescue pod with no memories. Once you learn the basics of combat, you will be thrown into the fray.
Shortly after, you will have to decide which faction you want to support. However, you can also choose not to join any of these groups. In that case, you will have to try to make it on your own.
Keep in mind that every decision you make will influence the further course of the game. Your impact on the outcome of the story is one of the greatest features and is intended to increase the replay value of the title.
Who is developing the game? As the publisher of The Last Oricru, Prime Matter (via Steam) is responsible, also known for Kingdom Come Deliverance.

The combat system is reminiscent of early Dark Souls titles
Is there a multiplayer? The Last Oricru gives you the opportunity to explore the world of Wardenia alone or with friends. For co-op, it doesn’t matter whether you’re sitting together on the couch or playing online together.
You can adjust the difficulty level to match your skills. The developers aim to appeal to both hardcore fans of games like Dark Souls or Elden Ring and fans of RPGs who prefer a more relaxed pace.
This is how hard the game is: The Last Oricru offers you an exciting story along with numerous boss fights, puzzles, and secrets. However, unlike the big predecessors, there are no checkpoints – the game saves automatically.
This is intended to underline the significance of your decisions. You cannot simply return to the last save point to choose a different dialogue option.
This is how the combat system works: Combat in The Last Oricru is reminiscent of titles like Dark Souls or Bloodborne. Equipment includes swords, shields, axes, bows, or staffs. You can also enhance your weapons with elemental magic. If you play in co-op, the combat system allows for unique combinations. The better you coordinate with your teammate, the more devastating your attacks can be.

A cool concept alone is not enough for success: The MMO Babylon’s Fall dies after not even a year – “Destiny in medieval style” was a flop on Steam.
