What Witchfire is
Witchfire is an adventure game developed by The Astronauts and released in 2024. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unreal Engine 4.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Desperate for a chance to triumph in the deadly war against witches, the Church calls on forbidden pagan magic to turn willing sinners into immortal witch hunters called preyers. Armed with powerful spells and fearsome firearms conjured by the best Vatican sorcerers, your mission is to find the infamous witch of the Black Sea, destroy the phantom army that protects her, and retrieve a mysterious artifact that can finally turn the tide of war.
How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. Its themes are action, fantasy and open world. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 36 achievements to unlock.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i5-6600K / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, 12 GB RAM and Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti / AMD RX 470 (4GB VRAM or more). A 12GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 55GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
