About This Game
KILLWRIGHT
Fight fast. Time it right. Turn one opening into a massacre.
Killwright is a brutal first-person melee roguelite built around precision, momentum and controlled chaos.
Choose your Killwright and fight through an ever-changing medieval nightmare, shaping your combat style through the weapons, perks and opportunities you discover along the way.
Parry or dodge at the last possible moment to trigger Tempo, slowing the world around you while you remain at full speed. One perfect defence can turn a desperate fight into a massacre.
MASTER THE TEMPO
Perfectly time your defence to seize control of the fight. Strike, reposition and chain kills before the moment is gone.
FIGHT YOUR WAY
Choose from distinct Killwrights with their own weapons, abilities and approaches to combat.
Master different fighting styles, then push them further through the choices you make during each run.
BUILD SOMETHING VICIOUS
Discover perks and weapons that transform how you fight. Build around powerful interactions, combine effects and turn simple abilities into increasingly violent combinations.
Adapt to what you find, commit to a build or gamble on something entirely different.
TURN THE FIGHT AGAINST THEM
Slash, parry, dodge, launch, disarm and send enemies crashing into each other. Use positioning, timing and the battlefield itself to turn overwhelming encounters in your favour.
CHOOSE YOUR PATH
No two journeys need unfold the same way. Choose where to go, how much danger to face and what you're willing to risk as your run takes shape.
Discover strange encounters and opportunities along the way, some offering exactly what you need and others asking you to gamble what you already have.
BRUTAL, STYLISED COMBAT
Dismember enemies, send bodies flying and carve your way through a dark medieval world built for fast, physical violence.
When Tempo begins, restraint ends.
AN EVER-CHANGING NIGHTMARE
Fight through shifting routes of haunted wilderness, ruined places and towering gothic spaces. Encounters, rewards and opportunities change from run to run, forcing you to make the most of whatever the road gives you.
