Absolver Co-Op ReviewLocke Vincent

You are not the first Prospect to be chosen… nor will you be the last. The Adal Empire does not yield its secrets easily. Everywhere you see the men and women you once knew; now, they’re husks of their former selves. They are lost. Though their minds are shattered from whatever they’ve encountered here, their strength is unwaveri...

We'll have our Co-Op Review up later this week, but the long story short is this: we like it! The combat mechanics, the demands put upon the player to focus on learning how their moves transition into one another, and the further demands to learn (in more ways than one) what those moves look like when they're coming at you are all unique. Best of all, it's very straightforward and even if your level of skill/knowledge of fighting games is low, the simplified controls (you just push a couple buttons to attack) means that it's easy to pick up and play.

Pre-orders for the game went live last week on Steam and GOG.com as the release date of August 29 was finally revealed. While the main focus of the game is to fight other players to become the supreme champion, there is a dedicated PvE area where up to three players can team up online and do some dungeon looting.

From what little has been shown of the game thus far, there's a really nice looking art style and fluidity of motion. Ideally that same fluidity will translate well when playing online with friends where you could, say, take on a group of foes and do some co-op combos to bring them down. Details about the title are sparse for now outside a few marketing bullets, but there is certainly some strong ideas here.
