Dread Templar on Steam: Old school shooter is very well received


from Norman Wittkopf
On January 26th, Dread Templar, a cheap old-school shooter in the style of Quake or Serious Sam, was released on Steam and has very positive reviews.

Dread Templar sees itself as a fast-paced old-school shooter for single players that combines elements from classic shooters from the 90s with features from modern genre representatives. True to style, a driving hardcore and metal soundtrack is also offered, while a variety of weapon upgrades and abilities can be playfully combined to create your own style of play.

The campaign of the title from the indie development studio T19 Games extends over 25 huge levels with hidden side areas, secret locations and puzzles, where unlockable objects also await the player. You shoot your way through hordes of varied demons and henchmen from hell with over ten boss fights, while a multiplayer mode is not on board.

In line with the game’s retro-looking pixel graphics, the system requirements for PCs with at least a Geforce GTX 560 and CPU with more than 2.5 GHz, 4 GiB RAM and 2 GiB storage space under Windows 7 64-bit are extremely frugal. Until February 2nd, Dread Templar can still be purchased as an introductory offer with a 15 percent discount for EUR 16.99 instead of EUR 19.99 on Steam be acquired.
