Zeno Clash (PC)
Zeno Clash is an action/fighting game set in a punk fantasy world. The game blends first person action with the up close and brutal combat made popular in third person console classics. The game's art style pushes the boundaries of the Source engine features (the same used to create Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, etc) and represents a departure from the visuals seen in any of today's games.
Zeno Clash currently available on Steam ($19.99) is also heading to retail outlets worldwide and features Steamworks integration for copy protection, player statistics and Steam Achievements.

New players must register between April 23 and May 7 to get the free subscription.
“We meet with the gamers every week to discuss Spellborn, they tell us the fighting system is the most amazing thing about the game. The idea being that your ‘moment-to-moment’ control during battle, mixed with your own custom skill deck gives endless possibilities. To see a smart level 5 player take down a level 15 player is something that SHOULD be possible in MMOs, and is something that really good players deserve to be able to do!”, says David Perry the USA Director for the Spellborn Project.
Once players download and install the game for free, they can choose between a PvE (Player vs Environment) server called “Dorzhan” and a PvP (Player vs Player) server called “Deiquonril” for a more intense combat experience.
In all regions, Spellborn will be a “Freemium” game, with a Free to Play zone and a required premium subscription service in order to access the full game past the Free to Play zone.
