During my trip to Portugal last year, I had the opportunity to dive into one of the most thrilling upcoming releases: Devil's Purge. Developed by Ontop, this augmented reality (AR) shooter immerses you in a battle against demons and the devil himself, all underscored by a fierce heavy metal soundtrack.
If you've been hesitant to try Devil's Purge, now is the perfect time to jump in. Not only is the game expanding its already electrifying soundtrack, but it's also transitioning to a free-to-play model. Inspired by its spiritual predecessor Doom, Devil's Purge adopts a shareware approach. You can experience the initial levels of its over 60 levels for free, with the option to unlock the full game through a one-time purchase.
In Devil's Purge, you're not just standing and shooting; you'll need to move actively to dodge enemies and expose their vulnerabilities. This dynamic gameplay sets it apart from more static AR experiences like Pokemon Go, making it a unique and engaging challenge.
The latest update not only introduces new levels but also enriches the game's brutal soundtrack with tracks from independent metal artists such as Avesso, Visceral, Zero Massive, Tales for the Unspoken, and many others. With a new combat system that allows you to customize your equipment from the start using resources from previous sessions, there's never been a better time to take on the forces of Hell.
The shift to free-to-play begins today, and you can find Devil's Purge on the iOS App Store. So, gear up and start blasting those demons!
