The trailer shows shows off tons of weapons including pole arms, swords, axes. Each weapon comes with different ways to block and attack so players will needs to pick carefully.
Combat is very bloody with each of those 240 angles providing gushing sprays of blood. You can even lop off your enemy’s head as you’ll see in the video.
