The rich tapestry of Viking mythology has long been a source of inspiration for video games, and Lionheart Studios is tapping into this with their eagerly awaited roguelike RPG, Valhalla Survival, now open for pre-registration. As the game gears up for its launch on April 21st, we've been given exclusive new details to share, offering a glimpse into what players can expect on release day.
Valhalla Survival is set to be powered by Unreal Engine 5, ensuring top-notch graphics and smooth gameplay. A standout feature Lionheart is keen to highlight is the game's vertical interface, designed for one-handed play. This allows players to dive into 5-7 minute sessions of fast-paced action on the go, making it perfect for quick bursts of gaming.
For those craving more extensive hack 'n slash experiences, Valhalla Survival offers the Eternal Glory mode, where players can battle endless waves of enemies. Choose from three distinct classes: Warrior, Sorceress, and Rogue, each equipped with their own skill trees. You can activate up to ten skills per run, enhancing your chances of survival and victory. With over 120 stages, 200 pieces of equipment, and a staggering 240 monster types, including massive boss battles, Valhalla Survival promises a deep and varied gameplay experience.
DiabolicalWhile Valhalla Survival may not be a direct descendant of classics like Diablo, it certainly positions itself as a formidable contender in the mobile hack 'n slash RPG genre. Each class offers unique gameplay mechanics and strategic depth, ensuring players have a variety of ways to approach the game's challenges.
The choice of a vertical perspective might not sit well with all fans, but with support for 13 languages at launch and a global release spanning over 220 countries, Lionheart is poised to capture a wide audience.
