Last year, Focus Home Interactive released a nasty little goblin from Cyanide Studios named Styx. His thirst for Amber took him deep into enemy territory and he found what he was looking for and then some. R.A.G.E. Works was fortunate enough to get to review that adventure and you can see what we thought of Styx: Master of Shadows here. In the last game we learned that no obstacle or enemy was large enough to keep Styx from his goal as he infiltrated the Tower of Akenash and made his way to the World Tree, source of the amber he craves so. Now Styx will have a new mission; details are scarce at this time but we know that he shall have to now infiltrate the Dark Elven city of Körangar. We also know that the Dark Elves seem to be in league with the Dwarves and the only thing that the two unfriendly races have in common is that they both hate the Goblins. It seems that Styx now has himself wrapped up in some sort of conspiracy.

But there is one thing that Styx values higher than the precious Amber: his own stinking hide. The Elves and Dwarves had best watch their backs and stay away from shadows. Styx will be lurking about sooner than they think. Stay tuned to R.A.G.E. Works for more info and look for Styx: Shards of Darkness sometime in 2016.
