What is
Sherwood Legacy?

Sherwood Legacy is a 2D action adventure inspired by early Metroidvania games, set in a dark new chapter of Robin Hood’s legend.

King Richard the Lionheart is dead. With Robin of Loxley’s identity exposed, a new king unleashes a ruthless campaign against Sherwood — one of the first rebel strongholds he seeks to crush. As tyranny and darkness spread, a new generation must rise.
