What's Happening?
Jyamma Games has announced its latest project, 'La Divina Commedia,' during Gamescom Opening Night Live. This new souls-like action-RPG is inspired by Dante Aligheri's Divine Comedy, but is not a sequel to the 2010 game 'Dante's Inferno.' The debut trailer showcases a warrior battling a skeletal beast and exploring a massive lake with a spectral gate. The game features craftable armor and weapons, unique weapon classes, procedural dungeons, and a 'sin alignment' system that affects the player's abilities and story events. 'La Divina Commedia' is Jyamma Games's second souls-like project, following 'Enotria: The Last Song.'
