Absolver

Mechanics

While playing Absolver PC, PS4 and XONE you get to explore the world, complete missions and, most importantly, fight enemies. The heart of gameplay is the complex system of short-range combat. The game lets you use four fighting styles interchangeably, all of which offer a wide array of melee weapons, starting with character’s own fists. Gameplay allows for dealing various strikes, counters, blocks and dodges. Players can also design their own combinations of attacks, using a special wheel menu, that match their preferred tactics.

You make use of all that on big three dimensional interactive maps, while having full freedom of movement. The game also offers a character progression system, which lets you learn new techniques and acquire better equipment.

Game modes

Absolver lets you play on your own, as it offers rich background story, and the events in the entire game world are shaped by successes and failures of individual players; however, the game is focused on multiplayer. While playing online, players can form teams and together explore ruins and dungeons across the realm of Adal. There is also PvP, which puts players on special arenas fighting 1v1 duels or group battles of 3v3.

Technical aspects

The game sports impressive visuals based on flat geometry and bright colors, combining art style of classic fantasy and Oriental elements. Character models and environments are rather simple and a bit blocky, which, all things considered, looks attractive and elegant.
