Some games pay homage to the Metroidvania style. The upcoming Romancelvania: BATchelor’s Curse, however, recognizes the tropes and clichés of the genre, and, to borrow a phrase, takes the piss out of it. Developed by Deep End Games, Romancelvania “marries classic action RPG gameplay with base building, reality TV, and romance”, and will launch for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC in late 2021.
