'Warlander' (ALL) Delayed Until 2020

Warlander is a single player third-person action-RPG that combines story-driven adventure with a fast-paced swordplay system that creates a visceral gameplay experience.

Would you sell your soul for vengeance? Would you be willing to become a servant of an immortal deity, to have your whole being transformed into a weapon of war and destruction?

Warlander combines story-driven adventure with fast-paced swordplay. Precision slicing meets ragdoll physics, creating a brutal and visceral combat experience.

With vivid art style and challenging level design, Warlander is set in a grim and perilous world as a narrative-driven action game that allows players to customize their combat style through an in-game progression system. Players can upgrade and acquire new abilities via three expansive and diverse skill trees. The result is a devastating combination of abilities.

Play as a resurrected hero on a warpath of vengeance. Aim precisely and slice through the flesh of your enemies in a ragdoll mayhem! Grow stronger in power, either by chopping your way across the battlefield or by using abilities to turn the environment into a deadly weapon. Wield a blade with a mind of its own while you fight and sacrifice enemies to appease the ancient gods.

Based on feedback from internal testing, Clock Drive Games has decided to delay Warlander until early 2020 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.

“We’re thrilled with the stages of development Warlander has reached and deep internal testing has allowed us to make improvements to the game,” said Goran Rajsic, creative director for Clock Drive Games. “We’re working on revamping the game’s fighting mechanics from a faster arcade-like style to slower, more tactical slashing maneuvers. We want players to act as wise warriors, tactically approaching their enemies, looking for the opportunity to strike them with the killing blow!”

Key Features

  • Brutal combat system with unique swordplay that’s fun to play yet hard to master
  • Ragdoll physics and mesh slicing giving you the feeling of cutting through real flesh and creating satisfying finishing kills
  • Challenging enemy variety that requires tactical thinking and skillful swordplay
  • Fully voiced storyline with immersive narrative focusing on the dynamic relationship between the hero and his sentient sword.

  • RPG character progression with multiple combat abilities and upgrades
  • Explore a dark fantasy world filled with intrigue and danger
