Minor Key Games, an indie development studio founded by brothers David and J. Kyle Pittman, has announced that its first person action-RPG Eldritch will be coming out on the 21st October 2013. David worked on BioShock 2 and The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, while J. Kyle worked on the Borderlands series.
Eldritch is described as ”a first-person action game inspired by roguelikes, immersive sims, and H. P. Lovecraft.” Basically, it’s a cross between a first person Diablo and Minecraft.
