Warlander is an online fantasy action game. It was developed by the Japanese studio Toylogic. The game is free-to-play, though it contains microtransactions. Its creators used to assist other developers with games such as NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139..., Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Kid Icarus: Uprising. Warlander is their first major standalone project.
Mechanics
The gameplay in Warlander is shown from the third-person perspective (TPP). The gameplay revolves around waging massive online battles, which support up to 100 players at once. The combat system is rather arcade-inspired, letting us make use of melee weapons, ranged weapons, spells, siege machines and even mechs.
There are many different character classes to choose from. Defeating enemies, completing objectives and building machines rewards you with Valor points you can use to enhance your character.
Battles involve either two or five armies, each with their own stronghold. The game ends once only one army has any men remaining. Players can construct war machines and take over enemy watchtowers. When attacking an enemy castle we must first weaken its defenses, destroying walls, gates and bridges.
The game places a strong emphasis on strategic elements - some players act as commanders, while making and breaking alliances is key during five armies battles.
Game modes
Warlander is only available in multiplayer.
Technical aspects
The game's 3D graphics are pleasant to the eye, made with the use of a slightly cartoonish artstyle.
