New Bound By Flame Combat System Trailer underlines powers, playstyles and companions

Focus Home Interactive and Spiders Studios have sent out a new trailer (with commentary!) for Bound by Flame, elaborating more on the fast-paced, fluid yet tactical combat system in their action RPG, which hits the PC, Xbox 360, PS3 and PS4 on 9 May. The video showcases a bunch of new gameplay sequences with commentary expanding on the skill tree options available as a Fighter, Ranger or Pyromancer and the arsenal of weapons you use to inflict damage upon those who dare to oppose you, with different weapons useful for different playstyles against different enemies.

It also showcases some of the powerful magic you can wield against your foes, ranging from pyro powers (setting fire to your weapons and throwing fireballs at opponents) to slowing down time while in combat. Furthermore, the developers emphasize the importance of choosing a companion compatible with your preferred playstyle; for example, those who intend to indulge in physical combat may prefer a mage-like defensive/support companion.
