Tales of the Bladed Dungeons

Tales of the Bladed Dungeons is a rougelike dungeon crawler. It releases on PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and XBOXSX in 2023. It has a T and PEGI 12 rating. The game is about a team of adventurers journeying through the Sharplands, a hidden kingdom of sorts themed after swords, sharp weapons and other typical weapons. 
== Gameplay ==
The game is a 3D dungeon crawler, displayed with an isometric view. Like most rougelikes, each run has its dungeon procedurally generated. While each room is pre-made, the order the player does them in is different each time. 
Players can find different treasure in dungeons: primary weapons, which are generally melee; secondary weapons, which are ranged, such as bows or cannons; skills, up to three can be equipped, which vary from bombs, spells and whatnot; and items, passive items which have different effect that don’t require player activation. All treasure can be purchased from shops, found from chests, or dropped by bosses.
Each character has different starting tools. On a new game, the player starts with four characters, but this can increase. All characters have slight different starting health amounts in their Life Bar. In every dungeon, the player can find Power Knives, which can increase one of three of attributes: Strength, Defense, and Mind. Increasing an attribute increases health and the power of weapons and skills that have that attribute. This mechanic is similar to the Power Scroll mechanic from Dead Cells.
The Hub Area, Hilthill Village, have markets, allowing buffs that can assist the start of the next run. However, there are some markets that can unlock permanent upgrades for future runs. Furthermore, some NPCs can be unlocked by doing certain actions in a dungeon. However, some parts of Hilthill Village can be unlocked by gaining Village Keys in the dungeons. 
Unlike most rougelike games, where the entire route in a game follows a “beginning level to final boss route”, the game has six different routes, the fifth being unlocked by beating the four routes. The sixth and final one is unlocked by beating the fifth with every character in the base game. (Does not need to be done with potential DLC characters.) Each route has its own dungeons, with different enemies and bosses that appear. 
There is also multiplayer. In local play, there can only be two players that can share controllers, but in online, up to four can play.
