Realms Deep 2021 is going on right now, and 3D Realms has announced a new game called Cultic. Developed by Jason Smith, the game is inspired by the classic FPS Blood. Please take a look at the Cultic reveal trailer.

The game's developer Jason Smith has been tweeting about the project for some time, but today's announcement was the first time 3D Realms has put their stamp of approval on the project.

But wait, there's more! Cultic has a free demo available right now on Steam.

Uh guys

Has anyone seen the CULTIC demo?

3D Realms was recently acquired by video game conglomerate Embracer Group, and it appears that today will be a celebration of their money hats. Tim Willits from Saber Interactive stopped by the stream to talk about the deal with fans, and he stressed that 3D Realms' current culture will remain. The personality and culture of the games will not change. 

The Realms Deep 2021 livestream is still going on right now, so be sure to tune in to see more great trailers and developer interviews. New Blood Interactive's Dave Oshry stopped by the stream to announce that Dusk is not coming to Nintendo Switch just yet and that he is giving away a NVIDIA RTX 3080 GPU. What a swell guy!
