Werewolf: the Apocalypse is here. Become a 400lb unstoppable wolf beast powered by rage and take on an evil, environment destroying corporation.

Werewolf: the Apocalypse is a game about environmentalism, from a certain point of view. Werewolves, or Garou, as they call themselves, are beings who are entrusted by Gaia, the Spirit of the Earth to protect the world from literal eco-villains who work in service of the Wyrm, a powerful destructive force that’s sort of the embodiment of corruption. It’s basically Captain Planet but given a dark, edgy, World of Darkness reboot.

Now, NACON and Cyanide have announced the release of Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood, a brutal beat’em up set in the World of Darkness. Available now on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Epic Game Store), you can check out the game’s launch trailer below:

You play as Cahal, a werewolf, or Garou, from the Fianna tribe, who is forced to go into exile after losing control of his devastating rage. After years away from his loved ones, fate brings Cahal back to his former tribe, which is in mortal danger. He must fight again to find his family and save Gaia, mother Earth, from Endron International. Controlled from the shadows by the corrupting Wyrm, this multinational oil corporation is relentlessly ravaging the planet’s resources and leaving despair wherever it operates, threatening all living beings.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is a violent beat’em up based on the three forms that Cahal can transform into, allowing for different approaches and varied play styles.

  • Homid Form: Used for stealthily neutralising guards and hacking into your enemies’ defences.
  • Lupus Form: Ideal for exploration and infiltration.
  • Crinos Form: Unleash your rage and sow chaos in the enemy’s ranks.

You will need to alternate between these three forms to bring Endron down.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood is the first action-RPG adapted from the eponymous horror setting. Mature, brutal, and complex, it invites players to embody Cahal throughout his quest of bloody redemption. He’ll play an essential role in the great war led by the Garou against Endron, a global corporation whose activities are devastating the natural world.

Good luck Garou
