Dread Templar is a fast-paced, retraux style gornfest First-Person Shooter developed by T19 Games, one that was made by a solo developer over the course of 3 years, and pays homage to old-school, gore-loaded FPS entries from the mid-90s like Doom and Quake.You're the titular Dread Templar, a mortal and Hunter of Monsters scarier than most demons; as a child you witnessed the former Dread Templar, your grandfather who raised you, attacked by the forces of evil and dragged into the underworld, but you were curiously spared from the forces of hell. Traumatised by the ordeal, your fear, anger, and desire for revenge awakens the latent Dread energy inside you as you were rescued by the Templars whom your grandfather used to serve. Without any options, nothing else to lose, you decide to join them.Growing up and following your grandfather's footsteps, you become the next Dread Templar, your latent Dread energy making you far more renown and dreaded by the forces of hell, easily surpassing your grandpa and making you one of the most powerful Templars.One day, after destroying the forces of hell on earth, a portal from hell suddenly drags you to the other side, full of monsters and undead. And it turns out, there are evil forces from the underworld watching you for a long time.

comment
Death from Above: A favorite attack of the bosses. Gomuramu alternates between causing spikes to shoot from the floor, or summoning organic laser projectors that rains a Beam Spam from above. On his rematch, the Hell Knight can stab his energy sword into the floor - causing projectiles to land all over the arena. Annorbysis will repeatedly send boulders raining into the cavern he's fought in.

In his initial encounter, the Hell Knight swings a hefty spear capable of unleashing a spear beam. Played straighter in the rematch where he starts with his original spear but switches to a sword capable of spamming energy blades halfway.

Beelsebur II wields a Black Sword whose hard-to-dodge blade projectile can cover half the arena. He's the powerful Final Boss, after all.

comment
Dragged Off to Hell: This happens to the Dread Templar before the first level, and he spends the entire game searching for clues and a way out. In the final confrontation, it turns out Beelsebur II is responsible for the Templar's predicament, as well as forcing the Templar down a path of bloodshed ever since killing his grandfather decades ago.

Recurring Boss: The Hell Knight is a demonic messenger who appears as the first boss, and bails with a We Will Meet Again taunt at the Templar when defeated. Expectedly, he keeps up to his word by returning later via a more powerful form (appropriately, in the level "You Again").

Troubled Backstory Flashback: In-between levels, after defeating bosses the cutscenes will narrate your past - how you barely survive a demon attack, your grandfather's demise, you being recruited by the Templars, and so on. The last cutscene brings everything to light as Beelsebur II reveals he's the one who killed your grandpa, and why he dragged you into the underworld.

Mook Maker: Apostles can raise basic undead foes to attack you, and oddly enough after you killed an Apostle, the mooks he summons doesn't die - you need to fight them too. The Spider Queen can bombard the arena with her eggs. You could dodge them, but the eggs will just hatch into more spiders. The Curator can summon a type of floating demon-thing (resembling a spherical giant mouth) enemy as backup.

Create Your Own Hero: Beelsebur II turns out to be the very demonic entity who killed the Dread Templar's grandfather decades ago, in order to awaken the Templar's Dread Force as a child. As the Templar grows up into a demon slayer, Beelsebur II waits for the Templar's powers to grow until reaching the desired level, where he then have the Templar dragged into the underworld so he may consume the Templar's soul. But unfortunately, the Templar turns out to be powerful enough to defeat and destroy Beelsebur II in an epic battle.

Shaping Your Attacks: The Hell Knight's secondary attack in his rematch is creating a sword made from purple energy, with each swing sending dagger-shaped purple bolts on you. Annorbysis meanwhile creates a literal fire ax made of lava. One of the Apostle enemies (just one, strangely) can create an Energy Bow, complete with arrows made of light.
