Abu Dhabi, UAE – September 1, 2026 – Agate and Red Dunes Games today announce that their epic isometric action RPG adventure, Blades of Mirage, now has a public demo available on Steam. The demo is released alongside a new action-packed trailer showcasing the game’s rune‑based customization, exploration across ancient islands, and puzzle‑driven encounters inspired by Southeast Asian culture.
In Blades of Mirage, players step into the role of Mira, a wanderer navigating a fractured world. Every choice matters: through runes and skills, players forge blades and abilities that reflect their strategy. Each island holds corrupted guardians, intricate puzzles, and relics that shape Mira’s journey, blending exploration, challenge, and discovery.
After several rounds of extensive playtesting, the development team at Agate has listened closely to every bit of feedback from gaming communities. Those sessions shaped how they present the demo today.
Players can choose between two distinct modes in Blades of Mirage. The default difficulty offers a more demanding combat experience, rewarding precision and patience, whilst a casual mode introduces animation cancellation and other benefits that smooth out the flow for fans who prefer an accessible, faster, more action‑adventure style.
Key features include:
- Action RPG Gameplay: A journey defined by precision, mastery, and exploration.
- Forge your path with runes: Customize abilities and unlock relics that define your playstyle.
- Explore ancient islands: Traverse diverse environments inspired by Southeast Asian myth, each filled with secrets and challenges.
- Confront corrupted guardians: Outsmart powerful foes through puzzle‑driven encounters and strategic choices.
- Solve intricate puzzles: Unlock relics and progress by blending exploration with problem‑solving.
Blades of Mirage is developed by Agate and Red Dunes Games, and published by Red Dunes Games. The demo will be available on Steam starting September 1, 2026.
