Tuesday, 3rd May 2022 – Team17 and OverBorder Studio have today announced that punishing action-RPG Thymesia will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on 9th August. As the mysterious masked protagonist Corvus, players will battle through the plague-ridden and blood-soaked streets of Hermes against the unforgiving enemies that now inhabit the once-thriving city. Tasked with uncovering the truth and saving Hermes, Corvus will utilise mysterious plague powered weapons reaved from fallen foes and use them to execute devastating attacks as he overcomes seemingly impossible odds and uncovers the truth hidden in his memories.
