Singleplayer dark-fantasy soulslike shooter with an extraction mechanic (portals as exfil points), no PvP
About the game
Witchfire from The Astronauts, known for The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, pairs dark-fantasy soulslike combat with extraction elements, but skips PvP entirely. As a Vatican witch hunter, you fight solo through procedurally varied areas, gather magical gear and weapons, and use portals as exfil points to carry your haul into the next run.
Early Access launched in September 2023 exclusively on the Epic Games Store, with a Steam release added in September 2024. A full 1.0 release is planned for the second half of 2026. For soulslike combat fans who want the extraction loop without the usual PvP loss-aversion, Witchfire is currently one of the few genuine options.
