Even Angels Bleed
Reclaim the fallen city of Gildenarch in this gothic, high renaissance action-adventure RPG.
In Crimson Moon, you embody the form of a Nephilim. A violent half-human, half-angel hybrid forged to defend humanity from hell using supernatural powers, weapons, and melee combat abilities.
Over the course of savage, replayable runs you’ll slay your way through an ever-evolving horde of demons, undead, vampires, and Hellgrowth abominations in visceral souls-inspired melee combat, culminating in brutal boss encounters with the fabled Dead Gods.
Whether you crusade alone or slay together in two-player co-op, the prophecy is yours to fulfill. So rise, violent one. And hail the Order of the Crimson Moon.
Immerse Yourself In Brutal Elegance: Save Gildenarch by venturing through every district and ward, each more hauntingly beautiful and hellish than the last. This is a world that remembers, reshapes, and pushes back, without demanding punishing repetition.
Bloodsoaked Combat: Fight demons, undead, vampires, and Hellgrowth abominations with adept seraphim vengeance and visceral executions unique to each enemy type. This is a game for those who thrive on improvisational and expressive combat.
Crusade Alone Or Slay Together: Your ally is your amplifier. Share lives, resurrect the fallen, and unlock synergies through optional co-op mode. Dynamic difficulty scaling and enemy composition ensures every mission feels fresh and personal.
High Risk, High Reward Missions: Every run is a ritual of transformation and resistance, with each triumph earning you new missions, modifiers, and skill achievements.
Unleash The Power of Angelic Transformation: Wreak holy havoc with evolving Nephilim powers that bestow temporary abilities and divinely devastating attacks.
Find Reprieve In Reverent Splendor: In between runs, return to the headquarters of the Church, your home base for permanent upgrades and NPC interactions. When ready, survey the city and plan your next mission via the War Table.
