The highly anticipated stealth franchise Styx will return in a few months with a new title called Styx: Blades of Greed, developed by Cyanide Studio. The announcement took place at the Nacon Connect 2025 event, where a trailer was presented that promises to enhance the gaming experience with new vertical exploration components, skill customization, and significantly improved artificial intelligence.
New Tools for an Old Goblin
This time, players will take on the role of Styx, a cunning goblin whose goal is to steal Quartz, considered the most powerful resource in the game world. With the help of innovative tools like gliders and hooks, Styx will lead us to carry out more ambitious heists than in previous titles. This installment is characterized by introducing a new exploration mechanic that will allow players to approach environments in a more dynamic and strategic way.
Although Styx: Blades of Greed will not require prior experience with the previous titles in the saga, fans of the series will find familiar characters and a context that evokes “the Great War and the creation of the Black Hand”. This suggests that veterans of the saga, known for its deep gameplay and captivating setting, will enjoy nods to its history.
In addition, the game will feature its own crew and a zeppelin that will serve as the mission hub, thus expanding the variety of interactions and narrative opportunities offered to players. With its promise of “bigger heists, deadlier tricks, and a sharper tongue,” Styx: Blades of Greed is set to captivate both new players and those who have followed the saga since its inception.
