Published worldwide digitally, Meridiem is pleased to announce the physical media release for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch: Dragon is Dead.
In this 2D dark fantasy hack and slash, you’ll play as a Successor, an immortal warrior empowered by the gods. With each death, you’ll revive with your items, gear, and runes intact, and you’ll be able to venture further into the corrupted zones of Cliffshire. While the dragon Guernian may have fallen, corruption still spreads. It’s the duty of the Successor to fight towards the Citadel at the center of it all.
A word of caution: the history you know is a lie.
Defeat the bosses. Piece together the fragments of the past, and discover what the Black Dawn really wants to do with the Corruption….before it’s too late.
Throughout this roguelite platformer, you’ll be faced with combat that focuses on precision work dodges, reading telegraphed attacks, and committing to aggressive combos. Be warned, though, not all is as it appears, as enemy layouts, hazards, and loot can shift each round. Each death can expose you to another layer created. While you may be granted the bonus of your items intact, stronger than before, there’s no guarantee the land will be as forgiving.
Choose your Successor Wisely:

- Spellblade – Element-focused hybrid with close and mid-range attacks built around fire, frost, and lightning.
- Berserker – Heavy melee bruiser that trades its own HP and positioning for huge damage and armor.
- Hunter – Mobile ranged fighter using thrown weapons, poison, and beast abilities to apply damage over time and control space.
While you may start as a Spellblade, there are a few more options at hand as you make your way through Cliffshire. Unlock additional successors with their own skill trees, weapons, and unique play styles to help further your advancement through Corruption.
Dragon is Dead- Guernian Edition is available digitally through PM Studios and is newly released physically for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch.
