Developer and publisher Colorgravehas has announced the release date of Veritus, a vibrant, top-down adventure game. Veritus promises to captivate players with its retro-styled graphics and engaging gameplay, reminiscent of the beloved adventure classics of the past on PC via Steam on July 22, 2024.
Veritus invites you to explore the dark chambers of the god of shadows, Veritus, and unravel the mysteries hidden within his castle. While it serves as a direct sequel to the “Very Positive”-rated Prodigal, it offers a standalone experience that doesn’t require familiarity with the previous game. This ensures that both new and returning players can fully enjoy the intricate storyline and immersive world.
The release date trailer showcases the game’s vibrant pixel art and nostalgic Game Boy Color aesthetic, setting the stage for an unforgettable adventure. Check it out below:
The game combines the charm of classic Adventure-RPGs with a modern, fast-paced twist.

Each boss you encounter presents unique themes, mechanics, and additional phases designed to test your skills. The castle is filled with countless rooms that interconnect seamlessly, creating a cohesive and expansive world to explore.
In Veritus, you’ll journey through the dark chambers of the god of shadows, facing monsters and uncovering secrets at every turn. Collect resources and equipment to survive as you navigate the castle’s lonely halls and seek to uncover the mysteries within the throne room.
