Soulstice is a character action game set in a dark fantasy world, where beings from another dimension are crossing over and massacring humans. Briar and Lute are some of the only people that can stop this invasion (or at least, that's what they're being led to believe). The two sisters have been transformed into one being known as a Chimera, with the former keeping their physical body — now with extra strength — and the latter now becoming a shade with supernatural powers.
Non-combat areas make use of fixed camera angles similarly to the original Devil May Cry, with many secrets being hidden throughout each chapter. Meanwhile, combat makes use of Briar and Lute's new form. Certain enemies can only be harmed while in specific fields generated by Lute, while Briar can make use of different weapons to increase damage and extend combos.
