Coming on March 27th from PQube is a sequel to the popular gothic Gal Guardians, titled Servants of the Dark. Expanding out of the single castle of the last game, you'll be exploring the entire demon netherworld and its not entirely unattractive demon gals.
The game features two new sisters, Kirika and Masha who work as maids for the demon lord Maxim. Returning home one day to find their master's castle laid waste and their demon lord near powerless, they set off on a quest for revenge and revival!
The pixel art looks gorgeous!
The game allows the player to switch between the girls at will to access their unique playstyles and meet the challenge as best they can. Along the way they'll have to subdue other demon lords and conquer their realms across a pixel-art metroidvania landscape full of pastel-coloured combat.
The game will be released digitally on March 27th with physical editions for Switch and PS5 coming soon.
Keep an eye on things with the official Gal Guardians website.
