The upcoming satirical epic, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-last-hero-of-nostalgaia/">The Last Hero of Nostalgaia</a>, will be hitting consoles and PC this October. Independent game publisher Coatsink and developer Over the Moon confirmed that the Souls-like title would be coming to Steam on October 19. A joint press statement announced that it would be available for the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/the-last-hero-of-nostalgaia/">Xbox Series X</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/the-last-hero-of-nostalgaia/">Xbox One</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-last-hero-of-nostalgaia/">PC</a>.
 
The <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/genre/rpg/">RPG</a> title drew inspiration from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/dark-souls-3/">Dark Souls</a> and the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-stanley-parable/">Stanley Parable</a>. The creators said it would be a twisted, humorous take on the Souls-like genre.
 
"The Last Hero of Nostalgaia is very much a love-letter to the Souls series. But it's still very much a game that I've tried to take in its own direction," said Jon Warner, CEO of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/over-the-moon/">Over the Moon</a>.
 
Over the Moon is the team behind several popular titles, such as <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-fall/">The Fall</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-fall-part-2-unbound/">The Fall Part 2: Unbound</a>.
 
Players will be slashing through Nostalgaia, the video game world, amid a pixel blight and in the shoes of the "most hideous pixelated hero." And to top off the doom-and-gloom experience, the creators added a cynical narrator. His role is to mock gamers' attempts to "save the world from a blight of pixelation."
 
"Players are going to discover a game layered with interesting narrative elements, and plays with the balance between humour and darkness," Warner said.
 
The Last Hero of Nostalgaia will also support single-player and multi-coop options, the creators added. A demo is currently available on Steam.
 
UK-based Coatsink is the publisher of several notable titles, including <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/get-packed/">Get Packed</a>, Onward, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/cake-bash/">Cake Bash</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/transformers-battlegrounds/">Transformers: Battlegrounds</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/phogs/">PHOGS!</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/jurassic-world-aftermath/">Jurassic World: Aftermath</a>.
