The richly detailed and melodramatic realm of Viking mythology continues to inspire the gaming world, and Lionheart Studios' upcoming roguelike hack 'n slash RPG, Valhalla Survival, is no exception. Currently in pre-registration and set to launch on April 21st, we've been given a sneak peek at what players can expect from this highly anticipated title.
Powered by Unreal Engine 5, Valhalla Survival emphasizes a vertical interface designed for one-handed play, allowing for quick 5-7 minute gaming sessions perfect for on-the-go action. This feature caters to players looking for fast-paced gameplay without sacrificing the depth of a roguelike RPG.
For those craving extended hack 'n slash action, the game introduces Eternal Glory, where players can engage in endless battles against waves of monsters. With over 120 stages, 200 pieces of equipment, and an impressive array of 240 monster types, including massive boss battles, Valhalla Survival promises a diverse and challenging experience.
Players can choose from three distinct classes: Warrior, Sorceress, and Rogue, each equipped with a unique skill tree. During each run, players can activate up to ten separate skills, enhancing their strategic options and chances of success. While Valhalla Survival draws inspiration from classics like Diablo, it aims to carve its own niche in the mobile hack 'n slash RPG genre.
The choice of a vertical perspective might raise eyebrows among some fans, but with support for 13 languages at launch and a simultaneous release in over 220 countries, Lionheart Studios is poised to reach a broad audience. This global approach suggests that any concerns from a vocal niche may have minimal impact on the game's overall reception.
