The combat has that Souls heft, and weapons really do work differently. It follows all the rules: One big unified map, areas locked behind new abilities and locked doors, backtracking, shortcuts, all of that with the combat and leveling system find in the souls game translated beautifully to a 2D platform game. But the real surprise is that it is also a great Metroidvania game. It's just as satisfying as a Souls game, probably not as hard, but still a decent challenge, which is rare in Metroidvania games these days. I was a bit worried that it would just be a souls rip-off with light Metroidvania elements, but it's not at all. Metroidvanias are my favorite kind of games, and I also love the Souls series and Bloodborne, so this game seemed right up my alley. Metroidvanias are my favorite kind of games, and I also love the Souls series and Bloodborne, so this game I absolutely loved this game.

As the sequel to Salt and Sanctuary, the game was released on May 10, 2022, for Windows, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. Similar to its predecessor, Salt and Sacrifice was inspired by the Dark Souls series of games. Instead of having one large map, the game's world is split into five separate zones. To progress in the game and unlock new areas players must devour Mage hearts and initiate Mage Hunts, in which the player character must chase down and defeat various boss characters. Each defeated mage will drop unique armor and weapons which can be used by the players. Each weapon has its own unique skills and movesets. While the player is exploring the game's world, they will encounter hidden tomes which can be used to initiate Fated Mage hunts, hunts players can play through repeatedly in order to collect specific upgrades. The game features elements commonly seen in Metroidvania games. Previously out-of-reach areas can be accessed once the player collects the necessary traversal items. They will gradually discover different shortcuts that allow them to transverse quickly, though the game does not have a fast travel option. Unlike Salt and Sanctuary, the game has online multiplayer. Players can join different multiplayer factions. The Shroud Alliance will invade another player's session and hunt them down, while Blueheart Runners can summon enemies known as Haze Burnt to kill the hosting player.
