Queen's Domain Sets October 30 Release On Switch 2, PS5, Xbox, And PC
King's Field has had few direct heirs, so a low-poly first-person dungeon crawler arriving day-one on current consoles and Steam is the genre's clearest recent test of whether a niche format still sells.

Future Friends Games announced that Queen's Domain, a first-person retro action RPG from developer Freshly Baked Games LLC, launches October 30, with pricing undecided. It comes to Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The game is influenced by classic FromSoftware titles, particularly King's Field, and sends the player to Nyasheed Island to search for a missing father and reach a sleeping queen.
The game is built around the legendary holy sword Endu, which doubles as the movement tool: players leap from platform to platform, and upgrades extend how far it reaches. Combat runs on a stamina meter, with charge attacks, weapon-specific special attacks, and throwable sub-weapons mixed in.
The scope is wide. More than 50 melee weapons and more than 20 throwable sub-weapons are included, and more than 100 enemy types appear, among them mini-bosses and bosses. Players level through experience points and can raise stats further by eating food, then combine accessories and weapons before pushing deeper into the island. Fields, monsters, and attack effects are rendered in fine detail against low-poly graphics styled after 1990s titles.
