Zelda-like 'Decay of Logos' invades Xbox One and PC on August 30

What you need to know

  • Decay of Logos is a Zelda-like adventure game.
  • It was revealed during PAX East 2017 for Xbox One and other platforms.
  • It's coming to the console and PC on August 30.
  • The story revolves around revenge and uncovering the truth behind an attack.

Updated August 13, 2019: Decay of Logos is available for digital preorder on Xbox One. The game costs $20.

Last year, Rising Star Games revealed a Zelda-like game called Decay of Logos. According to the developer, the title is set in a fantasy world where you coexist with kings, knights, wizards, ancient species, and other mythical creatures. You journey through an ancient kingdom ruled by a warring king and have to avenge loved ones. After your village is ransacked, you're saved by a magical elk and embark on a new quest.

Decay of Logos looks similar to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and has already captivated many gamers. It also has hints of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. As seen from the trailer, the game is a third-person role-playing adventure which focuses on tactical instead of action-focused combat. Just like The Last Guardian, gameplay revolves around the bond with a mysterious elk.

Today, Rising Star announced that Decay of Logos is coming to Xbox One and PC on August 30. It's launching on other platforms a few days early.

Hopefully, the game will be a stellar experience along the lines of the titles it takes inspiration from. The title has definitely improved since I last saw it at PAX East 2017.

  • That game needs some serious texture work before they should release. It looks like a VR game.
  • It doesn't look that bad to me, is it just the art style?
  • Gameplay is much important, the texture pack can come later lol.
  • Looks interesting, will definitely check this out.
  • So any bets on whether the Elk dies, or is it just me?
  • I wouldn't be surprised if the elks are generic and you can plow through them until you find one that fits your color scheme. >.<
