Witchfire has been on my radar for quite awhile now, it was one of those standout trailers from a showcase YEARS back. I initially stayed away from it due to its launch into Early Access. Now I don’t have an issue with that strategy, hell, I didn’t even have a problem with its Epic exclusivity window. No, I stayed away because this was from The Astronauts, the devs behind The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, which if you don’t remember, was a GORGEOUS walking/narative experience as well as their debut title. And here they were, making a FPS roguelike?! with the same gorgeous fidelity that they brought out in their debut title. So, I sat back, I said I’d wait till it launched into 1.0. “Let them cook” as the kids say.
