Melee combat with weapons or fists

A sci-fi Soulslike where you fight through a decaying industrial complex in an exoskeleton. Its hook is targeting and severing specific limbs to loot the exact gear and upgrades you want.

AI Limit

Post-apocalyptic setting

A challenging sci-fi action RPG in the Soulslike mold, where you play the immortal blade-wielder Arrisa exploring the ruins of a post-apocalyptic city. Combat emphasizes precise parrying and dodging.

Hyper Light Drifter

Post-apocalyptic setting

A wordless, gorgeous pixel-art adventure built on lightning-fast dash combat and exploring a ruined, mysterious world full of hidden paths. Its atmosphere and Disasterpeace soundtrack tell a melancholic story without a single line of dialogue.

Immortal Planet

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A punishing sci-fi soulslike with an isometric view where patience, dodging and precise timing decide every fight. You explore a decaying world of immortals and uncover the mystery behind its curse.

Darksiders III

Post-apocalyptic setting

As Fury you hunt the Seven Deadly Sins across an interconnected, apocalyptic world. Combat with whip, dodging and magic feels Souls-inspired and rewards precise timing.

Mortal Shell

Post-apocalyptic setting

A compact soulslike where you possess fallen warriors as "shells", each with its own abilities. The Harden mechanic lets you briefly turn to stone to absorb hits, making combat tense and tactical in a bleak, decaying world.

Code Vein

Strong character progression

An anime-styled soulslike where you fight as a vampiric Revenant through a ruined world, backed by an AI companion and swappable Blood Codes that allow very flexible builds. It also offers a deep character creator and a melancholic, memory-driven story.

Horizon Forbidden West

Lavish presentation

Aloy heads into a breathtaking post-apocalyptic West to hunt colossal robotic beasts, using bows, traps and tactics to strip their components and exploit weak points. A lush open world full of secrets is tied to a gripping sci-fi mystery about the fall of the old world.
