If you’ve been craving an old-school RPG experience with modern depth, mark your calendars—Pale Coins officially launches on October 22, 2025 for PC via Steam, priced at $9.99 USD.
Developed over four years by solo creator Lukas Irzl, Pale Coins is a handcrafted pixel art Action RPG set in the kingdom of Grenmark. Inspired by the classics but built with fresh mechanics, the game emphasizes tough battles, player-driven exploration, and a no-handholding approach to adventure.
“My goal was to capture the magic of the classics I grew up with while adding my own twist,” said developer Lukas Irzl. “The feedback from the demo has been incredible; seeing players get hooked on the combat and depth of gameplay has been the best reward. After four years of development, I’m thrilled to finally share Pale Coins with the world.”
The newly released release-date trailer showcases everything players can expect—strategic combat, branching quests, and retro-inspired boss fights that echo the intensity of soulslike encounters.
