The rich tapestry of Viking mythology continues to captivate the gaming world, and Lionheart Studios' upcoming roguelike RPG, Valhalla Survival, is poised to make a significant impact. Currently in pre-registration and set for a launch on April 21st, Valhalla Survival offers a fresh take on the hack 'n slash genre with exciting new details that promise an engaging experience.
One of the standout features of Valhalla Survival is its use of Unreal Engine 5, which promises to deliver stunning visuals and smooth gameplay. A key aspect that Lionheart Studios is keen to highlight is the game's vertical interface, designed for one-handed play. This allows players to enjoy quick, fast-paced action in sessions lasting 5-7 minutes, perfect for gaming on the go.
For those craving more extensive hack 'n slash action, the game includes an Eternal Glory mode where players can battle endless waves of monsters. With over 120 stages and 200 pieces of equipment, there's plenty to explore. Valhalla Survival introduces three distinct classes: Warrior, Sorceress, and Rogue, each with their own unique skill tree. Players can activate up to ten skills per run to maximize their chances of success, adding depth and strategy to the gameplay.
The game also boasts an impressive roster of adversaries, with 240 monster types and challenging boss battles, ensuring that players will face a diverse array of threats. While the vertical perspective might not appeal to all fans, the game's broad appeal is underscored by its planned support for 13 languages at launch and a simultaneous release in over 220 countries.
While Valhalla Survival may not be a direct successor to games like Diablo, it's shaping up to be a noteworthy addition to the mobile hack 'n slash RPG genre.
