'Midjungard' (ALL) Available Through Steam Early Access

Set in a Tolkien-inspired, pre-Viking world, Midjungard is a class-based 3v3 fantasy hack n' slash brawler designed for immediate fun, with respawns and loot trading hands with every death.

In Midjungard 6 players are dropped into a beautiful and savage land full of strange creatures, myth, and magic. Each team of three players will go head to head in 15-minute matches hoping to earn the most points by eliminating enemy players. Being felled is not the end though, as players will be able to respawn and attempt to exact their revenge on the enemy player that bested them.

Midjungard features three playable classes for players to choose from, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Sverdur the Paladin is clad in sturdy plate and armed with a sword and shield, making him exceptional at defense. Armed with a bow, and deadly accurate in ranged combat is Jaegra the Huntress. Lastly, Smidur the man-beast capable of delivering a fatal blow with his long axe in one swipe.

Teams looking for advantages can collect potions, weapons, level-ups, and seek to capture the formidable weapon the UrHamar mounted on the central pedestal, the Altari. Succeeding in capturing the UrHamar or obtaining powerful potions will give players access to special abilities and even superhuman strength. Players will need to plan carefully when seeking out powerful advantages, however, as any death will result in a loss of all loot they have earned thus far.

Midjungard is now available on Steam Early Access for $14.99, and will remain so for about 4 weeks.

Note! For now Midjungard has a bug that sometimes bypasses the lobby and launches the players straight into the game. If this happens all the players will come in as the blue team. To switch teams from blue to red press the ; button (the semicolon button).”

Plus Infinity Studios is looking forward to post-release support and content for players to grow the game over time. Players can look forward to PvE battles added shortly after release as a free DLC.

Key Features:

  • Battle for survival in 3v3 matches set in a primal Tolkien-inspired pre-Viking world.
  • Choose from three distinct classes to suit your playstyle. 
  • Capture the UrHamar to morph into the fourth avatar, the Berserker, for the ultimate advantage of superhuman strength.
  • Collect powerful potions, weapons, and level-ups by scouring the map.
  • Defeat enemy players to earn points and win the match.
  • Fight with strategy as loot is lost with every death.

Midjungard is in development for PC (Steam), scheduled for early 2021.
