Players are enjoying games for months, even years, and a Warhammer ARPG like Chaosbane could certainly support a long life. Within an hour, I had a full roster of useful skills and happily used them to maximum effect, bouncing between enemies with a shield bash, taunting them into groups, and blending them with whirlwind.
I quickly earned other special attacks, like a banner that buffed me and my allies, and a taunt skill. I love the way it chucks dead opponents through the air like party streamers. Still, I was won over by Chaosbane’s fluid movement and impactful attacks. The mage certainly wins on pure spectacle. I picked the Soldier class, one of two available for the beta, which I at first thought was a mistake. Enemies fell quickly to my attacks, which fluidly cut through opponents in a tornado of numbers. The simple plot quickly brought me up to speed before letting me loose in a sewer to slay baddies gushing poison and chaotic energies. Still, this feels like an action-RPG built on a firm foundation that could – with proper support – find itself slotting alongside Path of Exileand Diablo 3 in my ARPG rotation.
It isn’t set for release until the end of May and still felt a bit rough (the game didn’t launch at the correct resolution, for example). Unlike The Division 2, it felt like a “real” beta instead of a demo. A quick start to the slayingĬhaosbane is currently in closed beta.
