Games Like HEARTRENDER

I AM BECOMING SOMETHING MONSTROUSLY BEAUTIFUL. Welcome to the Null, a surrealist non-space between worlds, times and concepts, populated by outcasts and detritus from across existence. As a lone agent of strife on a personal mission, sneak, brawl, shoot and swing your way through open-ended heists.

FLOWER OF STRIFE

Control Eris, mysterious disaster-woman maestra on a journey across fantastical locations, no matter who stands in her way. Infiltrate from rooftops, hide in shadows, swing from your tentacle arm and more. Ditching subtlety, go up against fantastical characters with larger-than-life melee/firearm hybrid combat inspired by kung-fu films, fighting games, anime and Garry's Mod. No, that last one's serious.

BLOOMING POSSIBILITIES

Forget micromanaging inventories and grinding. HEARTRENDER employs the Petal system, where you adapt and fluidly exchange abilities from ethereal shapes strewn across missions, from a vast array of firearms to showstopping spells of all kinds. A revolver that crystallizes bullets into explosive nails of pure light. Cast a bolt of lightning from the sky. Flying like a jet and even summoning a motorcycle from thin air. You're an improvised arsenal of mayhem. Act like it.

RETRODIGITAL SURREALIST DAYDREAM

Inspired by the famous 20th artistic movement of Surrealism, classic 90s adventure games with pre-rendered backgrounds and 1970s giallo Italian cinema - yet shamelessly powered by the Unreal Engine - HEARTRENDER brings its world-between-worlds setting to strange, beautiful life, including high-class lighting and audio.

AN IMMERSIVE, SYSTEMIC WORLD OF DETRITUS

The Null is an unprecedented place. Learning from classics like Thief, Deus Ex and Dishonored, fantasy and sci-fi collide in a playground where tumbling objects, power grids, vehicles and assorted arcane artifacts occupy the same space as forgetful magical machines, dutybound ghosts from senseless wars, well-dressed birdpeople and more.
