More On: Unto the End

Big Sugar and 2 Ton Studios have announced that their upcoming combat-adventure game Unto the End will be playable at this week's EGX event at London's Excel, but before the event kicks off a new trailer has dropped for the game. Unto the End is about a humble father that must endure a desperate journey back to his family armed with only a sword, a dagger, and his wits. Players will have to fight strategically and react accordingly to enemy actions and strike tactically with their sword and dagger as they encounter intelligent opponents that have their own motivations in the world. In addition they'll have to face various challenges and deadly traps in the unforgiving terrain.

Unto the End will launch for the PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch in 2020, including being a day one Game Pass title on Xbox One, but it will also be publicly playable at EGX this week.

Anyone heading to EGX later this week or at the weekend will be able to try Unto The End for themselves. The game's appearance at the show will be the first time it's been publicly playable anywhere, and 2 Ton Studio's husband and wife team, Stephen Danton and Sara Kitamura, will be on the stand (Booth RZ9) and happy to talk about the development of Unto.

"Our goal for Unto The End was to build something from the ground up that makes the most of our 2D side-on view, breaks from convention and challenges genre expectations," explains game designer and animator, Danton. "We're very proud of what we've achieved and super excited to have players give the first ever public demo a go at EGX."
