Marvelous just posted the third blog entry for their upcoming 3DS game, Lord of Magna: Maiden Heaven. This time, the blog focuses on the game’s combat. Check out this new combat trailer:
Some key features of the game’s combat, according to Marvelous:
– AP (Action Points), which governs the use of abilities in combat. Choosing when and when not to spend them is crucial.
– Emphasis on support abilities: Support abilities, like increasing stats or augmenting characters, are extremely helpful in combat.
– “Bowling” ability: defeating 10 or more enemies in a single move will earn characters an extra turn. To help with this, defeating an enemy knocks him back into his allies, potentially defeating them as well.
– Skill Chips: Equipable items that provide characters with new abilities to use in combat
– Elemental system: governs weaknesses, strengths, abilities and character attunements
– Consumable items are focused on dealing damage to enemies in this game
Finally, Marvelous announced that they will be doing a livestream of Lord of Magna: Maiden Heaven, where viewers will be able to pose questions to the developers, this Thursday, May 28th, at 6 PM BST (GMT +1). Check out the stream here. The full blog post can be found here.
We’ve already reported on the news that the next Skylanders game will feature vehicles thanks to some leaks, and now we’ve got some more evidence backing that up.
A couple of weeks ago, American motorsports competitor Travis Pastrana reportedly wrote the following Instagram post: “Was filming some cool stuff for a new Activision game called Skylanders Superchargers this weekend”. The post has since been deleted. Makes sense that a motorsports star would be involved with a game featuring vehicles, right?
While it’s obviously not an official confirmation yet, it does seem pretty likely that the next Skylanders game will feature vehicles of some kind.
Ronimo Games released the 21st “Daily Duel” video for Swords & Soldiers II. In today’s video, the battle is 1 Genie, 5 Axethrowers, 3 Nagas, 3 Desert Stalkers and the Tiger Leap spell versus 1 Siege Troll, 4 Shamshir Soldiers, 3 Barrelriders and 3 Spearthrowers. Check it out below:
