14 years after the release of its MMORPG, and 9 years after its arrival in the West, Nexon explores the universe of Vindictus with
Vindictus: Defying Fate. This new title, action-RPG oriented, reveals battles against titanic creatures. Expected on PC, the game is still in its early stages. And yet, a pre-Alpha testing phase is already planned from March 13 to 18.
However, the foundations of the project are there. Vindictus: Defying Fate is an action-RPG in the same universe as Nexon’s MMORPG, but which shares nothing else with it. No open world here. While a multiplayer mode is planned for launch, the experience is primarily designed for solo play. This will make it easier to emphasize the fighting style to offer a wider range. All while focusing on a strong story that will perhaps disturb the biggest fans of Vindictus.
Unfortunately, we won’t know much more. In an FAQ the developers made it clear that if certain aspects of the game could evoke a Souls like, it is not one. But they mainly focused on pre-Alpha, which seems to be open to all players. All you need to do is go to Steam between March 13 and 18 to download the game. From then on, we will be able to get a first glimpse of what Nexon wants to head towards.
