At the controls of a fighter named Nor, the player goes to fight legions of undead commanded by undesirable gods. From the outset, we understand that it will be necessary to make good use of Enki, the magical creature that accompanies the protagonist and has the role of occupying an enemy with its teleported attacks, which should prevent the player from being overwhelmed too often. .
“With heavy and hard-hitting combat, players need to think carefully about their every move. The soldiers of the gods’ undead army are devastatingly strong, and their dark magic can turn the tide of battle with a few blows. To defeat some of the most powerful beings in existence, players must use their full arsenal of tools – using gunpowder to its fullest and combining Nor’s agility with Enki’s strongest magic to make the vulnerable enemies and demolish them one by one“, the press release tells us.
And the blows executed by Nor seem indeed to have impact, just as one feels the work in the staging of the executions. Watch out for enemy attacks marked with a red alert, they are assumed to be unstoppable and therefore require rolling to the side. Like a Bloodborne, the firearm in the left hand should mainly be used to destabilize or slightly injure enemies, but for the most part it is in melee that the debates will take place. On the exploration side, we note the presence of triangle-shaped portals which act as a teleportation point for Nor and Enki.
