Monster Sanctuary features a broad roster of monsters to collect and pitch in three vs. three, turn-based combat, as well as an expanding Metroidvania-style world, as players attempt to uncover the mystery surrounding the relationship between humanity and monsters.
 

Denis Sinner, Managing Director, Moi Rai Games, said:

“We’ve been hard at work iterating upon Monster Sanctuary throughout Early Access, and the Underworld update is another step in the journey to its full release. Unlocking the Underworld is a key milestone in expanding the world players can explore, and we’re excited to see how the new monsters will affect their teams during combat.” 

Grant Towell, Producer, Team17, said:

“Monster Sanctuary continues to bring a raft of new and exciting content with every update; Underworld, its new monsters, higher level cap, and the expanded exploration capability of the grappling ability come just months after the introduction of endgame player vs. player combat, not to mention areas such as Horizon Beach and the Magma Chamber. We – alongside the community – can’t wait to see where Moi Rai Games takes us to on the next part of the Monster Sanctuary journey.”

Monster Sanctuary is available for PC via Steam Early Access for $17.99/€15.99/£13.99.
