Myriad Souls, Gunfire Reborn‘s eighth season of content, is launching on June 12th, we can confirm!

The new content introduces fresh seasonal gameplay centred around Soul Pendants (which have abilities derived from a Great Demon Boss) and Soul Jades, which you’ll find out in the wild as you play. There’s an evocative bit of text on Steam, which sets the scene:

“Souls shift, manifesting myriad wonders. Through mysterious arts from distant realms, one can absorb the Soul Essence of great demons and grasp the power of demon souls,” the developer wrote.

Duoyi continued: “If Soul Jades are found and set in place, even more wonders will be revealed. To uncover these mysteries, heroes have embarked on an expedition. However, many monsters have also been nurtured by these demon souls, and they lie in wait for the arrival of adventurers…”

Meanwhile, the next content drop also expands Act IV with additional routes through the depths of the Hyperborean Jokul, as well as adding new enemies, weapon iterations, Occult Scrolls, Inscriptions, and new weapon skins.

If you want all the details, then head over to Steam, where there’s a lengthy blog from last week that details the Occult Scrolls and shows off the new enemies being added to the game.

I recently decided to take another look at the game to see how it holds up four years after its initial release. In that review, I noted that “when it comes to build variety and overall polish, this classy little FPS holds its own against the best in the business.”

Finally, there’s the new trailer, which hopefully will work when this news piece goes live (at 4 am here in the UK). Check it out below!
