Enotria: The Last Song is an upcoming souls-like currently targeting a Spring 2024 launch on PS5. What's the spin this time? Enotria eschews the darkness and bathes in a sunlit world inspired by Italian folklore. This is a technical showcase trailer, and while the art direction and environment are impressive enough, we'd hope combat animations get tightened up a bit before launch.
Gripped by the Canovaccio, a twisted, eternal play, the world is kept in unnatural stasis. As a Maskless One, you have no pre-ordained role in this charade and are thus the master of your own destiny. Defeating the fearsome Authors will free this world from stagnation and reward you with their fallen Masks, allowing for new styles of play.

In for Italian souls
