In Styx: Blades of Greed, you play as Styx, this super sneaky goblin with a savage sense of humor who’s basically a stealth genius. This time, he’s after Quartz — the most valuable and dangerous resource in a world that’s about to explode into war between elves, humans, and orcs. And yeah, if there’s profit involved, Styx is already ten steps ahead. The game builds on what the first two did but gives you way more freedom. It’s all about creativity and choice now. You explore huge vertical maps, use new tools and powers, and approach missions however you want. Whether you’re new to the series or you’ve been here since day one, this is peak goblin greed energy.
And for once, Styx isn’t working for someone else. He’s chasing his own goals and running his own crew. He’s got a whole zeppelin now, and together they’re hunting down Quartz. Along the way, you’ll run into old faces and new characters while dodging traps set by the Inquisition. This story also sets up the Great War and the creation of the Black Hand mercenary group from Of Orcs and Men, so it ties into the bigger universe.

Styx still has his classic Amber powers like Cloning and Invisibility, but now Quartz gives him new abilities like Mind Control and Time Shift. Every mission feels like a stealth puzzle with multiple solutions. You can ghost through without being seen, manipulate enemies, or… you know… go for the dagger if that’s your style. No judgment.
You get to explore three massive open areas too: The Wall that separates the human world, the orc village of Turquoise Dawn, and the ruins of the elven capital Akenash. The maps are super vertical, so you’ll be gliding through the air, grappling to high spots, and climbing walls with your claws. It’s got that Metroidvania-style progression where new tools unlock areas you couldn’t reach before. Basically, it’s stealth, strategy, and chaos — all led by a sarcastic green goblin who just wants to get rich.
