Watt Games, the studio behind Hannah’s Day, has announced Tsarevna, a third-person action slasher set in a dark fantasy world. The game is set to launch on PC via Steam in 2026.
In Tsarevna, players take on the role of a young warrior princess. Her kingdom has fallen, and she now wields a magical sword shaped by emotion. Her path is one of vengeance, set in a world built on Slavic mythology.
Tsarevna’s ballet-like combat stands out
The game’s combat blends elegant movement with deadly precision. Motion capture from Alyona Kovalyova, a principal dancer at the Bolshoi Ballet, brings the action to life. Every strike, dodge, and spin follows a rhythm, turning each fight into a brutal performance.
Combat involves timed parries, flowing combos, and emotion-based spells. The moves feel like a dance but are designed for survival in a hostile world.
A journey through myth and memory
Tsarevna is set after a long-forgotten disaster. Players will explore cursed lands, from dark villages to sky-high kingdoms. Along the way, they will face gods, spirits, and creatures drawn from pagan legends.
The story follows the Tsarevna’s search for truth and revenge. She must uncover her past while learning the cost of wielding power tied to grief.
