3D Remake Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection announced


We are pleased to show you the announcement trailer for Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection, the 3D remake of the original Sword of the Necromancer, which is coming to PC and consoles at the end of summer 2024. Previously planned as a stretch goal in the sequel's Kickstarter campaign, this remake will now instead be released prior to Sword of the Necromancer: Revenant to give more time to the latter's development. [previewyoutube=gySxPxnoEv4;full][/previewyoutube] Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection[/b] will be a reimagining of the original monster-summoning dungeon crawler game, which featured top-down pixel art graphics. Based on Revenant's engine, players will be able to relive Tama's quest to resurrect her lover in 3D, with exciting new ways to battle and renewed mechanics and systems, including the possibility of customizing the summoned monsters' AI. This remake will also feature remastered high quality illustrations and voice acting (both in English and Japanese) and new scenes to delve deeper in Tama and Koko's tragic love story. You can help us (a lot!) by wishlisting the game! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2782880/ In addition to the new features, beating Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection will also unlock rewards in Revenant once it's available, like the possibility of summoning the bosses of the remake (shown at the end of the trailer) as special summons. Sword of the Necromancer: Resurrection will be released on Steam and consoles (Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series).

Use the Game Settings to customize your experience. - Game Settings screen will appear a single time upon boot up after having cleared the tutorial, so no one misses them. - Fixed several minor bugs and crashes.

  • What would you do to bring back someone you love?

    Sword of the Necromancer is a dungeon-crawler action RPG with Rogue-like elements where you can revive your defeated enemies to make them fight alongside you.

    Turn your foes into allies using the forbidden powers of the Sword of the Necromancer and help Tama reach the dungeon's depths in order to gain enough power to bring Koko back from the dead.

    Gather a little army of monsters, equip yourself with weapons and relics and level up to take on the guardians that stand between you and your objective.



    • Turn your foes into allies: use the Sword of the Necromancer to revive defeated monsters and make them fight alongside you.
    • Gather weapons and relics: each weapon is different from the others thanks to the procedural weapon generation system, which gives them various effects and attributes.
    • Fight with all your might: defeat your enemies using a variety of weapons and objects and dominating the fluid head-to-head battle system.
    • Level up: enhance your character by fighting enemies and upgrade your stats. Improve your summoned monsters by fighting alongside them.
    • Death is not the end: Each try gets you closer to the Necromancer. You will lose all your equipped weapons and monsters, but you will retain half the level you achieved in your run.
    • Learn the truth: Discover Tama and Koko's past as you advance through the dungeon.
    • Local co-op play: Use the Flask of Homunculus to create a copy of the playable character and play with a friend in local co-op game.



    "Legend says that, deep within these mountains, a heretic decided to violate the will of the gods in order to achieve eternal life.

    The heretic succeeded in this aberrant attempt, and created a tool for forbidden rituals that could grant immortality… and even bring back the dead.

    Over the years and centuries many have tried to get that power for themselves, but all they found in the Necromancer’s crypt was their demise.

    They say that the tool the Necromancer created is also a weapon…

    The Sword of the Necromancer




    Tama is a former rogue that is tasked to escort the priestess Koko in her pilgrimage around the continent. During their travel Koko dies, and Tama carries the corpse to the Necromancer's crypt, where legends say there dwells a power that may resurrect the dead.

    Filled with despair, Tama will enter the dungeon with the aim of obtaining the forbidden power of necromancy, ignoring the dangers that lurk in the shadows.
