Meanwhile the clip below gives us a good look at what to expect from the top-down hack ‘n’ slash game, which features the four main characters – Thor the Warrior, Thyra the Valkyrie, Questor the Elf and Merlin the Wizard, each of whom have their own unique strengths and abilities. We see how the game has transformed from the 1980’s arcade classic into a more contemporary action-RPG, while retaining elements which made the original so much fun; so expect fast-paced combat and tons of enemies, hand-crafted as well as procedurally generated dungeons to explore, secrets to discover and various gear (armour, weapons and powerful relics) and perks to acquire.
