Indie game developer Acme Gamestudio announced their upcoming action RPG Asterigos: Curse of the Stars will release on PlayStation, Xbox and PC via Steam on October 11th. The game has now released a free beta version on Steam as well as the pre-order options.

Here is a brief overview of the game via tinyBuild:

Asterigos: Curse of the Stars is a third-person action RPG set in a world inspired by both Greek and Roman mythology. Players step into the boots of Hilda, a brave young warrior on a quest to uncover the secrets of Aphes, a cursed city eternally haunted by its transformed citizens, now reduced to horrifying monsters. In order to survive her quest, Hilda will have to hone a range of fighting styles, including sword & shield, dual blades, spears and hammers, as well as mastering magic cast from powerful staves and enchanted bracelets.

Even with might and magic behind her, exploring Aphes is sure to be perilous. Dozens of monster types lurk in its streets, plazas and ruined buildings, including over twenty challenging boss battles. It’s a place of deadly beauty, with an interconnected web of sunlit valleys, crystalline caverns and gorgeous plazas, ready to be explored in time-tested ‘souls-like’ fashion. Dangerous as it is, the city is ready to reward the curious and the brave with hidden lore and lost treasures.
