Phantom Hellcat, a 2D-3D Hack 'n' Slash, Unveiled at Gamescom Opening Night Live

Today at Gamescom Opening Night Live, new studio Ironbird Creations was revealed alongside a tease of its first project: a new game called Phantom Hellcat with hack-n-slash combat taking place in a cursed theater.


Phantom Hellcat starts Jolene, who breaks a seal on said cursed theater, prompting the darkness to take her mother hostage. As the chaos grows, Jolene must use the props around the theater as weapons to fight back, smashing up sets and collecting character masks to learn new abilities.

Her travels will take her through 3D/2D camera-shifting perspectives as she explores different plays and sets.

There's no release date yet, but Phantom Hellcat is expected to release on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC when the time comes.


Developer Ironbird Creations is a new studio under All in! Games, the Polish publisher behind Ghostrunner, Chernobylite, Tools Up!, and Paradise Lost.
