About

In Realm of Ink, you’ll experience a quick and stylish action roguelite where your choices truly matter. You play as Red, hunting the Fox Demon, but quickly realize you’re stuck in a story written by someone else. The only way out is to fight back – battling enemies, breaking through illusions, and rewriting the narrative itself.

This game treats death not as a failure, but as a chance to start anew and change the story. Every time you play, the game evolves, giving you new ways to fight, special powers, and items that transform with each attempt. You’ll face four challenging bosses who want to trap you, and meet over 20 creatures drawn from Chinese myths and legends.

As players fight, discover secrets, and are reborn, they get closer to ending the repeating cycle and creating their own destiny.

Key Features

  • Endless Cycles and Rebirth – Break free from prewritten fate as you unlock powerful new forms with each run. Harness the Fox Demon’s immortal abilities, battle through ever-shifting Story Relics, and face four unique bosses who guard the truth at the heart of the ink-bound world.
  • Creative, Fierce, and Fluid Combat – Master nine distinct combat forms and weapons, each offering unique playstyles. Equip over 40 elemental Ink Gems, including Tiger Ink, Venom Ink, and Dragon Ink, to forge devastating combos. Build deeper synergies with over 200 unlockable perks such as the Shadow Kite, Octagram Dart, Lock Charms, and the Lamp of Seven Stars.
  • Evolving Ink Pets – Fight alongside adorable-but-deadly Ink Pets, each capable of evolving into more than 15 unique forms depending on your Ink Gem combinations. These companions grow stronger as your story deepens.
  • A Vibrant Eastern Fantasy World – Explore four atmospheric realms inspired by Chinese folklore, battle over 20 mythic creatures, and uncover their hidden stories through dialogue, lore encounters, and affection-based interactions.

BlazBlue: Entropy Effect Collaboration

Leap Studio and 91Act are teaming up to add Oread, a powerful boss character from BlazBlue: Entropy Effect, to the playable roster of Realm of Ink.

Oread is making a splash in the Ink Realm with a powerful new Ink Gem, unique skins for her Ink Pets, and game-changing perks. These additions enhance her already impressive fighting style, giving players fresh options for customizing their strategies and winning battles.
