Crimson Moon: Metal musicians for boss fights, starting September 1st

ProbablyMonsters' gothic action RPG is coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series for $19.99, featuring two-player co-op combat and a soundtrack by real metal musicians.

Crimson Moon arrives on September 1, 2026, on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series, for $19.99 on Steam and the Epic Games Store.It's a gothic action RPG from ProbablyMonsters, featuring brutal melee combat, repeatable hunts, and boss fights designed to challenge even those familiar with the genre.It can be played solo or in two-player online co-op.

For those who want something more, there's the Deluxe Edition for $29.99, which includes a set of ceremonial armor, a cosmetic axe, and access to a future expansion that hasn't been detailed yet.

The most intriguing detail is the soundtrack: metal musicians like HEALTH, Jared Dines, Misha Mansoor, and Ricky Armellino are composing original songs specifically for the boss fights.It's not often that an indie game in this price range relies on recognizable names from the metal world instead of an in-house composer, and it's the kind of choice that can mean the difference between a forgettable boss and one that sticks in your head.
