Styx: Blades of Greed
You play as Styx, a cunning goblin with a caustic sense of humour who has mastered the art of stealth. Your goal is to get your hands on Quartz, the most precious – and dangerous – resource in a world on the brink of war between elves, humans and orcs.

Styx: Blades of Greed refines the proven formula of the first two games by making freedom and creativity central to the experience. Explore vast vertical environments and master new tools and powers. Whether you're discovering Styx for the first time or you're a longtime fan, it has never been so exciting to be greedy!

No more working for others! This time, our famous green-skinned friend is pursuing his own goal and leading his own crew. Aboard his zeppelin, Styx and his crew hunt down a new, mysterious power source: Quartz. Throughout your mischievous journey, you'll encounter familiar faces and colourful new characters while outwitting the Inquisition's traps. This adventure marks the beginning of the Great War and the creation of the Black Hand, the mercenary group central to the events of Of Orcs and Men.

Every great heist requires preparation! Craft weapons and potions before executing your next scheme. A wide range of abilities is at your disposal: Cloning and Invisibility return thanks to your Amber skills. Master Mind Control and Time Shift abilities granted by Quartz. Every situation is a stealth puzzle you can solve in multiple ways. Despite his small size, Styx relies on agility, sharp wit and biting humour to escape the trickiest situations.
Always reaching for the dagger first? Who are we to judge… No harm seen, no harm done!

Roam freely around three vast open environments: The Wall, which marks the boundary of the human world; the lush orc village of Turquoise Dawn; and the Ruins of the elven capital, Akenash. Soar through the skies with your glider, reach inaccessible spots in a flash with your grapple, and scale massive walls with your claws. Take advantage of the vertical environments to reach your targets. Every new tool unlocks previously unreachable areas with Metroidvania-style progression.

In the latest update regarding Styx: Blades of Greed, it's clear that Cyanide is pushing the boundaries of stealth gameplay. After a recent delay to February 2026, the game is back with fresh content that significantly enhances its mechanics. Styx, the notorious goblin thief, is now collaborating with the Black Hand from Of Orcs and Men, embarking on ambitious heists to seize Quartz from the Inquisition.

One key mission takes place within the Wall Fortress, a complex environment teeming with guards. While Styx is not typically a combat-focused character, he is equipped with an array of new tools, including a grappling hook, which opens up various strategic options. The gameplay emphasises creativity, allowing players to choose from a multitude of approaches. For instance, players can opt for stealthy methods like poisoning or assassinating guards, or take a more daring route by climbing the fortress walls.

What stands out in Blades of Greed is its emphasis on player choice. Instead of a linear path, players can tackle obstacles in unique ways, whether it's using invisibility spells, mind-controlling enemies, or directly confronting guards. The environment itself promises to be dynamic, with multiple massive sandboxes to explore, adding depth to the heist experience.

As the game approaches its launch date, anticipation continues to build. Players can look forward to a stealth experience that encourages exploration, strategy, and varied gameplay styles.
