Rose, a former outlaw, travels through the spirit realm of the Underwest. Take up the once-forgotten skills of the gunslinger in this Action-Platformer adventure, and journey along the breathtaking landscapes on a quest to rescue your daughter’s spirit.
Hey, travelers!
As Rose’s journey continues, we leave [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1697850/view/6190841163202880455]Gluttony[/url]’s ravenous realm and enter [b]the Mirrorverse of Pride[/b].
[b]Don’t trust what you see[/b] here, travelers. Just like in the tale told by the victor — there is a lot of [b]fact twisting and pompous self-glorification[/b] here.
[h2]The Shogun[/h2]
Once a [b]powerful Shogun[/b] – who conquered lands in the name of honor and glory – the Pride clutches the Realm in his ephemeral grip. He uses his influence [b]to show himself as the only hero[/b] in his story. And there is [b]no one in the realm to challenge him[/b] over it.

You might think that he’s all talk, but all who thought the same way never won the duel with the ex-Shogun. Even in the afterlife, [b]the Pride is as masterful of a swordsman as he was in life[/b].
To keep his distance in a fight [b]he uses myriad of blades[/b], dotted across the arena and doesn’t shy away from [b]petty, underhanded tactics[/b]. If not taken seriously enough, the battle will be over in a blink of an eye.

And The Pride will never miss an opportunity to [b]play on your egos and insecurities to lull your vigilance[/b].
[h2]Twisted Epos[/h2]
The realm of Pride depicts [b]a surreal and highly subjective version of feudal Japan[/b] during the Samurai era.

In life the Pride – like most other warlords – sacrificed other’s lives for his reputation and standing. And the realm stands as [b]a silent reminder of what unsatisfiable ambitions lead to[/b]. Abandoned ruins and destroyed temples, ghost towns and green overgrowth. Each one shows the end result of a bloody feud over power.

As you go deeper into the realm, more and more echoes of the Pride’s conquest will appear to thwart your progress. From burning buildings to confusing labyrinths. From deadly arrow traps to hordes of undead warriors. [b]Everything plays its dedicated role in the Pride’s twisted epos.[/b]
[h2]Ukiyo-e[/h2]
Pushing through the domain of Pride is like making your way through the desolated wastelands of unfulfilled ambitions. Here the stale [b]suffocating grays are peppered with the ghostly shades of greens[/b].

[b]The further you go[/b] and the closer you get to the Pride,[b] the more vivid and saturated the surroundings become[/b]. Freakish pinks mix with delicate deep-blues; saturated crimson adjoins abyssal blacks. And together it creates[b] an almost Ukiyo-e style experience[/b].

In the end, the Pride’s realm — just like all the others we’ve visited so far, — is [b]a tale as old as human society itself[/b]. After all, the Sins are primal and simple by their nature. But t[b]his realm tries to make it seem as if you are at the wrong[/b] for challenging someone as grandiose as the Shogun. And yet, the evil of concealing the truth is, arguably, worse than the deeds committed. This epos is well past due to receive it’s conclusion. And [b]there will be nothing worthy of pride, when Rose puts a final dot its the end[/b].
And now, travelers, – after visiting the realms of [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1697850/view/3905246507017826020]Wrath[/url], [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1697850/view/3982938673438203791]Sloth[/url], [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1697850/view/6190841163202880455]Gluttony[/url] and Pride, – will you still be brave enough to gallop through the Underwest with Rose? To witness, what will it take the mother to save her daughter? To find out, what Sins will become the next obstruction of vengeance? To uncover, what do the other realms hide?
