Focus Entertainment and Uppercut Games have unveiled Magicians: The Devil’s Deal, a narrative‑driven first‑person shooter launching in 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC.
This twisted new take on magic throws players into a world where illusions become weapons and every performance is a fight for survival.
Jacob Menteuro’s Descent Into Theatreland
You play as Jacob Menteuro, a once‑renowned illusionist whose talents bordered on the supernatural.
After making a pact with the Devil, Jacob dies and awakens in Theatreland, a hellish domain ruled by the very magicians who betrayed him.
These tyrants, known as the Masters, control realms shaped by deception, vanity and cruelty.
To escape Hell, Jacob must hunt them down, steal their powers and uncover the truth behind his downfall.
Magic as a Lethal Art
In this world, stage tricks become deadly tools.
Every ability changes how you fight, adapt and survive.
Expect combat built around:
- Razor‑sharp card projectiles
- Chains that bind and immobilize enemies
- Gravity‑bending illusions
- Precision‑based spellcasting
Each encounter demands observation and creativity, pushing you to turn spectacle into strategy.
A Wicked World Built on Illusion
Theatreland is a nightmarish reflection of Victorian‑era London, buried deep in Hell and warped by the powers of its Masters.
Every realm is filled with grotesque performers, fanatics and environmental hazards that test both reflexes and wit.
Nothing is what it seems.
Every scene hides secrets.
Every performance is a trap waiting to snap shut.
A Story of Betrayal, Power and Damnation
Jacob’s journey is driven by revenge, but the deeper he goes, the clearer it becomes that vengeance offers no redemption.
He is hunted by his mentor, tormented by the Devil and surrounded by rivals who want him erased forever.
Magicians: The Devil’s Deal promises a dark, stylish FPS built on deception, theatricality and the thrill of mastering impossible powers.
