It's up to you to cut a path through all the plotting and put an end to one man's madness so that the French Revolution succeeds. As Paris burns and bleeds during the Revolution, you are Aegis, an automaton masterpiece made by Vaucanson, an engineer in the service of the Clockwork King. Allies and enemies with unclear motives will cross your path, such as Marie-Antoinette, Lafayette and Robespierre. You are one of the main characters of an alternative history where Paris is being choked by a tyrant king. Combined with your dash ability, it will provide access to all the city's secrets across multiple levels you can explore over and over again. Your grappling hook adds a new dimension to exploration and Paris's verticality. Using carriages, grapples, secret passages, a detailed map, and other methods and tools you find along the way, explore a city experiencing its darkest days. Take advantage of a wide variety of weapons and skills to approach each fight in your own unique way.


You can play as a ruthless warrior, a hard-hitting bodyguard, a deadly dancer or a virtuoso of the elemental arts.
