## Summary

The Sound of Fury, a newly revealed fantasy action game, follows a troubled classical musician who journeys into Hell to rescue a friend from the Devil. Its combat uses musical instruments as weapons, giving the game a distinctive visual style and setting it apart from more conventional hack-and-slash adventures.

The trailer shows piano attacks, sheet-music effects and moves that make enemies dance, alongside a Flying V guitar used against the Grim Reaper. The game’s Hell blends a faded 19th-century fantasy world with imagery from humanity’s darkest historical chapters, including gasmasked soldiers and Ku Klux Klan members. Games By Wojtek is developing and self-publishing the apparent debut title, which is planned for release in late 2027.
