<p>Developer WATT Studio has released a new cinematic trailer for Tsarevna, its action “ballet-slasher,” teasing what awaits players in this dark fantasy, Slavic folklore-inspired world. The team says its combat system is built upon choreographed motion capture from world-renowned ballerina Alyona Kovalyova, a principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet.&nbsp;</p><p>”Set in the aftermath of a dark and fractured era, Tsarevna leads players on a journey through enchanted and forsaken realms – from the depths of the Underworld to the skybound lands of Iriy,” a press release reads. “Along the way, players will confront ancient deities, unlock Tsarevna’s forgotten past, and uncover the cost of wielding power rooted in grief and beauty.”&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Check out the Tsarevna teaser trailer for yourself below:&nbsp;</strong></p><iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ frameBorder=”0″ width=”640″ height=”360″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/jEAe604BZHE” frameborder=”0″ allow=”autoplay” allowfullscreen=”true”>&nbsp;</iframe><p>In the game, players control the titular Tsarevna, a young warrior and heir to a fallen dynasty. She’s armed with a magical blade that WATT Studio says is forged from emotion itself. With it, the Tsarevna “battles through hordes of creatures drawn from myth – wraiths, mermaids, forest spirits – as she seeks vengeance and truth in a world scarred by a long-forgotten cataclysm.” Players can expect challenging boss fights with gods, as well as cursed villages, ruined temples, and divine realms to explore, and more.&nbsp;</p><p>Check out more of Tsarevna in the new screenshots below:&nbsp;</p><p class=”inline-rich-content-placeholder”>&nbsp;</p><p>Tsarevna is due out on PC via <a href=”https://store.steampowered.com/app/3348640/Tsarevna/”>Steam</a> sometime in 2026.&nbsp;</p> <section class=’type:slideshow’><figure><img src=’https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/entity_browser_thumbnail/public/2025/06/17/7ffa47e6/tsarevna_screenshots_5.jpg’></figure><figure><img src=’https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/entity_browser_thumbnail/public/2025/06/17/08777b1a/tsarevna_screenshots_1.jpg’></figure><figure><img src=’https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/entity_browser_thumbnail/public/2025/06/17/48a472ab/tsarevna_screenshots_2.jpeg’></figure><figure><img src=’https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/entity_browser_thumbnail/public/2025/06/17/dddd8016/tsarevna_screenshots_4.jpg’></figure><figure><img src=’https://www.gameinformer.com/sites/default/files/styles/entity_browser_thumbnail/public/2025/06/17/d45cd016/tsarevna_screenshots_3.jpeg’></figure></section>
