Covenant Reveals Dark Fantasy Combat in 2025 Trailer

Covenant, the upcoming first-person dark fantasy action title from Legion Studios, just dropped a new trailer—and it’s giving serious momentum to fans of immersive melee combat and lore-heavy world-building. Set in a crumbling divine realm, players step into the role of a forgotten angelic warrior navigating the ruins of celestial order.

Unlike many modern action games, Covenant goes all-in on precision-based melee combat. Weapon swings feel heavy, movement is tight, and timing is everything. Players can use one-handed or two-handed weapon styles, each unlocking unique abilities, counter mechanics, and combo flows. This isn’t a button-masher—it’s skill-based, thoughtful, and punishing in the best way.

Magic and aura systems bring even more depth, allowing players to enhance their fighting style with mystic augmentations and buffs. The game also introduces advanced traversal features like wall-jumping and sliding, making arena-based combat both vertical and aggressive.

But Covenant isn’t just a single-player journey. The game will also feature competitive PvP modes in first-person: 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 battles. With the ability to fully customize combat styles, each match becomes a showcase of creativity and reflex.Visually, the trailer hints at a world steeped in gothic architecture, divine decay, and metaphysical horror—something that feels like a blend between Dark Messiah, Dark Souls, and Doom, all viewed through a unique spiritual lens.

While the exact release date is still under wraps, Covenant is currently in development for PC, and judging by this trailer, it’s shaping up to be one of the most mechanically ambitious and aesthetically haunting fantasy games of 2025.
