BKOM Studios is thrilled to announce the official launch date of Madzik, a narrative-driven, cooperative hack and slash adventure infused with ’80s nostalgia. Get ready to dive into an era of magic, multiple moons and mayhem on May 30th, 2024 – exclusively on Steam.

After our successful demo at the Steam Next Fest, giving players a first taste of the game’s enchanting world and dynamic gameplay, we are excited to bring the first episode of Madzik to our fans and newcomers alike.

A Journey into the Heart of Zikverländ

In Madzik, players are transported to the mystical yet perilous world of Zikverländ, where the celestial Moons dictate the flow of magic and influence the land. Players will encounter a range of dynamic environments and challenges, as each new moon cycle brings its own distinct danger, which alters the game’s world and its inhabitants based on the lunar cycles.

Meet Your Heroes

The game features two distinct heroes, Makino and Veroline, each with unique abilities that enhance the cooperative gameplay experience. Whether you’re bashing through enemies with Makino’s enchanted warhammer or casting devastating spells with Veroline, every battle is a chance to synchronize your skills and overcome the darkness corrupting Zikverländ.

Zikverländ awaits. Will you rise to the challenges and harness the power of the Moon Madness?

Madzik – Episode 1 is now available to wishlist on Steam, and will launch on May 30th. Keep up to date by joining the official Discord server and following BKOM Studios on X.
