As is to be expected in games of this genre metroidvaniathe castle encompasses different routes to discover with the sisters’ unique abilities, as well as several bosses to defeat.
By bringing two playable characters at the same time, Grim Guardians will also support cooperative multiplayer with special actions, as well as a variety of difficulty options to customize the experience.
