Wolcen Launches Today - Another Competitor for Diablo
Hack'n'slash game Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem will leave Steam Early Access today, where is has been since March 2015. With today's update, new content and a host of improvements will be added to the game.
- Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem, the debut production from the French studio Wolcen, launches today.
- Two more chapters of the story campaign have been added, which continue the themes learned in the first act. The whole story is supposed to last about 15-20 hours, and after we get acquainted with it, an extensive endgame mode will be waiting for us.
- Many changes have been made to the balance of the game and the network code.
Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem was originally called Umbra - the change of title took place in March 2015, less than a month before the release in Steam Early Access. It was also then that the developers responsible for the arcade PC RPG decided to change the name of their studio, the game is developed by Wolcen Studio, former SolarFall Games.
The debut production of the French team emphasizes the narrative, featuring a storyline we can complete solo or in cooperation with friends. With today's official release, the isometric RPG will feature two acts of the campaign, continuing the themes presented in the first chapter. After completing the plot, the endgame mode called Champion of Stormfall will be unlocked. Thanks to it we will be able to return to the dark fantasy world and perform some already known missions on our own terms, which we will determine before the start of the task. All bonuses and item bonuses were also modernized.
Taking this opportunity, Wolcen Studio has released a new trailer, reminding of today's launch. The footage presents several epic battles that we will have to fight while playing. It is worth noting the high quality of the visuals, which was achieved thanks to the capabilities of the CryEngine technology.
Let us remind that Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem was funded entirely by the community - the French studio raised over 400 thousand dollars for its project. This game can be purchased on Steam for $?29,99. The dynamic hack'n'slash was positively received by the community - with almost nine thousand players, 77% of which rated the game positively.
