Voidwrought is a 2D Metroidvania action-platformer developed by Powersnake, released in 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. Players control the Simulacrum, a being that emerges during the age of the Red Star to harvest Ichor — the blood of gods — from the powerful creatures that hoard it. Exploration spans several distinct hand-drawn biomes, including the ruins of the Gray City, the frozen tunnels of the Old Waters, and the biomechanical Abandoned Expedition. Combat encounters include over 70 enemy types and 11 bosses. A loadout system built around more than 50 Relics and Souls — ranging from active spectral weapons to passive stat modifiers — allows for varied character builds. Players also manage a growing shrine, excavating ruins and recruiting followers to unlock new secrets and rewards. The soundtrack was composed by Jouni Valjakka, known for Vigil: The Longest Night. Three New Game+ modifiers offer additional challenge on repeat playthroughs.
