Action RPG rogue-lite Never Mourn announced for PC

Bordeaux-based Indie developer Primal Seed has announced Never Mourn, set to release for PC (Steam). No release window has been given.

Never Mourn looks to be an action RPG rogue-lite, where players are put in control of a necromancer named Irea as she takes downs waves of enemies while seeking out the Tree of Life to revive her child.

A teaser trailer, description, and screenshot set can be found below. Thanks to RPGamer for the heads up!

“You stole the life of what was precious to me, so I’ll snatch the lives of those who stand in my way”

In a world where the Starvelings devour unfortunate souls. Irea will find herself in the middle of events that are beyond her control. Desperate to revive her child, she will make no concessions to achieve her goals. Becoming a powerful battle necromancer, she will deny death and go through threatening places to reach the Tree of Life.
