The combat looks like it’ll place more emphasis on dodging and precision parrying than blocking, which sounds thrilling from afar, but will doubtless upset and depress me when I actually play and struggle to beat the tutorial boss.
The aesthetic looks brown and gritty when you’re zoomed out – the main character is a mass of scars and muscles, with flowing white hair - but zoom in and you get flat-shaded anime faces. The ranginess of certain characters makes me think a little ofBloodborne, but then, I’m over-eager to compare games like this to Bloodborne. The cragginess of the lead also reminds me of Asura’s Wrath, though there sure ain’t many QTEs on show in this one.
The First Berserker doesn’t have a release date yet, but it does have aSteam page.
