About Styx
Styx from Cyanide started with Of Orcs and Men in 2012 pairing Styx with Arkail, then Master of Shadows October 7, 2014 as solo Akenash tower infiltration. Shards of Darkness followed March 14, 2017 with Korrangar open zones and co op. Blades of Greed arrived February 19, 2026 continuing sandbox stealth.
Play Orcs and Men first for Styx origin, then Master, Shards and Blades in release order. Each runs 15 hours with cloning and amber skills. No further game has been dated after Blades, so these four are the set with Akenash DLC as extra.
Good to know
Release order matches Styx growth from duo to solo, so there is no alternate timeline to follow. Master teaches tower verticality best. Shards adds co op and crafting. Blades expands sandbox with new tools. All carry M ratings for stealth kills. Start with Master for modern controls if Orcs feels dated on PS3.
