Shadow of the Guild is nearly here: just under one month of a wait left for the release!
Steam Next Fest brought the game attention well deserved with thousands of viewers on streams.
Luckily I didnt see the number of viewers I thought I was alone so I just kept having fun on the stream lol!
said the developer of Shadow of the Guild, Robin Buisson from the Guild Studios after his nearly three hours broadcast during Steams October 2022 Next Fest. Over a hundred thousand unique viewers and nearly ten thousand concurrent viewers brought Shadow of the Guild some well-deserved demo-enthusiast attention.

Guild Studios has been making the beat em up / RPG / story-driven Metroidvania for a long time since it originally started as a saga of books, penned by the lead developer of the game! The French book series called The Rain Merchants Guild tells the story of the said guild, which controls the clouds, rain, and thus the water available to the people.
Story
Shadow of the Guild sets up a premise for the books and lets you play as one of the Guilds Shadows, Yarn. A shadow is part of the Guilds spies who are trained to be warriors, mages, and assassins. Yarn receives a mission to solve how the evil Emperor Gethro III has learned to make clouds himself and is trying to steal the domination of rain and clouds from the Guild.
Gameplay
Shadow of the Guild is a side-scrolling beat em up with an RPG-like progression. When you go further in your mission you will be able to choose which skills you want to develop. You can choose from the paths of warrior, mage, or assassin, each focusing on different skill trees.
The actual gameplay lasts for about 5 to 7 hours depending on how deep you want to dive into the story. And why wouldnt you, it truly is a magnificent story.
The Guild Studio is also promising a lot of upcoming updates on their roadmap, including speedrunner features on their first update following the release, more content, and missions, and theyre hinting something about slaying a horde of pirates
Shadow of the Guild is arriving on Steam on November 10th, so stay tuned by
