The game also has a variety of locations from dim castle interiors to sunny outdoor forums. The characters all have unique designs, while still staying with the Nordic theme. There’s a solid amount of detail in the Blood of Heroes beta as well.
It will be fascinating to see how this dynamic evolves over the game’s lifespan.
While some characters are best leading the charge with their weapons at the ready, others are best suited for a support role, quickly engaging and disengaging from battle while making sure their allies are taken care of. Smart team composition will be the first step in getting the tactical upper hand on the opposite team. The unique characters in Blood of Heroes will surely make for an interesting strategy. Vorga is an agile fighter that can heal his teammates when wounded, while Rathka is a frontline fighter who's sturdy enough to take on more than one enemy at a time. These Heroes also fit into specific playstyles. The Blood of Heroes beta also features six different heroes, each having their own distinct fighting style. This comparison feels most evident in certain modes of the game. Defend your honorĪnother one of Blood of Heroes’ major comparisons is to For Honor. I really enjoyed the level of strategy that came from the game’s arsenal of combat mechanics. Fighting another player online feels like a game of chess, as you’re both methodically thinking about your every move in anticipation of the other player. Blood of Heroes’ online component features a few modes that range in player count and objective type, from a 1v1 to group battles. This is especially true if you’re playing PvP against others online. Instead, you’ll need to anticipate its movement, catching it before it can slide out of the way or dodge an attack. You simply can’t walk up to an enemy NPC and just hack it to death. Combat is primarily melee, and is heavily dependent on timing, parrying, and dodging. The comparison doesn’t come in terms of the game’s difficulty, but in its fighting style. Just like a Souls-likeĭeveloper Vizio Games likens Blood of Heroes to Dark Souls, and that’s immediately apparent from the opening moments. The game is currently in beta, and I had the opportunity to participate on PC. That’s precisely what developer Vizio Games is looking to do with Blood of Heroes, a PvP combat game set to release later this year. It’s an era/genre that we’ve seen so many developers try their hands at, still finding new and innovative ways to add onto it. The medieval genre is ripe for the picking when it comes to games.
