Evaluation

Colossus: Eternal Blight launched into Early Access on July 21, 2026. The game is explicitly an unfinished product — the launch post describes it as "just the First Chapter" and promises "lots more to come." Since launch, the developer has been highly active: they shipped a feature patch on July 25, a bug fix on July 28, another feature patch on August 2, and then on August 8 published a full 2026 roadmap alongside an announcement for Chapter 1.5. Chapter 1.5 ("Secrets of The Forest") launched as a content update on August 11, 2026. The roadmap lays out a clear pipeline of upcoming content: Chapter 2.0 (the Forest Dungeon — a major story chapter with a new boss and dungeon design), Chapter 2.5 (new quest types), and further intermediary ".5" updates beyond that. A Kickstarter-funded Chicken Race minigame is also confirmed as coming. The developer's most recent communication was on August 11, 2026, and the overall posting frequency has been high since launch. There is no ambiguity about the game's status — it is an actively developed Early Access title with a detailed roadmap for substantial future content.

About this game

The kingdom of Eireos is rotting from within. A creeping darkness called the Blight devours everything it touches and the one man sworn to stop it, your brother Lance, has vanished without a trace. 

You are Lucian. Not a chosen hero. Not a legend. Just a brother who refuses to give up on someone he loves even as the world around him collapses into nightmare. 

Colossus is a story-driven action RPG with precision combat, a hand-crafted pixel art world, and choices that leave real scars. The Blight will test you. How you answer is up to you. 

Every fight in Colossus is a test of timing, positioning, and adaptability. Parry a blow at the last moment, counter with a fluid combo, dash through an opening, or use the environment itself to turn the tide. 

Switch freely between a varied arsenal each weapon changing the rhythm of how you fight. Button-mashing will get you killed. Mastery will set you free. 

Explore a Hand-Crafted World: Journey through a beautifully animated pixel art world inspired by classic JRPGs. Discover hidden treasures, solve Zelda-style puzzles, explore ancient ruins, and visit tightly-knit towns spread across four distinct regions of Eireos.

The Blight isn't just an enemy it's a temptation. As the corruption spreads across Eireos, you decide how to respond: fight it, contain it, or leave people to their fate. 

But if you're willing to walk a darker path, the Blight itself offers power. Corrupted abilities that can turn the tide of any battle. At a price. 

But Beware... Those lost to the Blight are gone forever. Your choices are permanent. 

Choose from three distinct classes, each with their own skill trees and specialisations then switch freely between them as your strategy evolves. 

Lean into a pure discipline, or forge a hybrid approach that suits your instincts. And if corruption doesn't scare you, the Blight's abilities are waiting brutally effective... but at a cost... 

At its core, Colossus is about what we do for the people we love and whether that love is enough. Lance believed in duty above all else. Lucian believes in Lance. 

As the truth behind his brother's disappearance unravels, you'll face questions the game doesn't answer for you. Strength won't be enough. Neither will hope. 

How far will you go to bring him back?
