The fast-paced shooter has received a huge marketing push over the last few months, recently showing up at the PlayStation Showcase and Summer Game Fest.
We recently attended a hands-off preview for Immortals of Aveum, coming away with mainly positive feelings towards the game, saying that “Combat looks to be a blast, an expressive mix of offensive and defensive spell casting with buttery smooth camera work and some neat puzzles to shake up the pacing of the game. There’s also the raw star power of the game’s cast, but all that charisma and impressive combat will hopefully be in service of a world that has more to say than what we’ve seen so far.”
