What Styx: Blades of Greed is
Styx: Blades of Greed is an adventure game developed by Cyanide Studio and released in 2026. It was published by Nacon. It is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unreal Engine 5.
The premise, in the publisher's words
You play as Styx, a cunning goblin with a caustic sense of humor who has mastered the art of stealth. Your goal is to get your hands on Quartz, the most precious – and dangerous – resource in a world on the brink of war between elves, humans and orcs.
How it plays
It is played from a third person perspective. Its themes are action, fantasy and stealth. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 44 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Styx: Blades of Greed holds a critic score of 82 out of 100. That places it above 76% of the 7,527 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2026 averaged 78, so it scored 4 points above the year average.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X, 12 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, 6 GB or AMD Radeon RX 590, 8 GB or Intel Arc A750, 8 GB. A 12GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 25GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
