Description
In the ruins of the fallen Adal Empire, you awaken with a mysterious mask on your face, and faint recollections of an esoteric ceremony. Freeing you from hunger, thirst, and even death, the mask is the creation of the Guides, the rulers of these lands, who have placed you here to determine whether you are worthy of becoming part of the elite corps of Absolvers. As you wander these forsaken lands, encountering other Prospects like you, you will learn new combat styles, acquire weapons, gear and armor, and build a team of warriors with whom to fight side by side in Arenas of combat.

Fluid Real-Time Combat: Position yourself in one of four tactical stances during real-time battles and execute devastating attacks, dodges, and parries. Movement becomes your weapon as you engage in solo duels or intense three-on-three melees battles.

Customizable Style and Flow: Players will define their character’s playstyle by picking a combat style, a weapon of choice, and arranging attacks in their Combat Deck to design their unique and personal attack flow.

Online Multiplayer Action and Narrative: Prospects and Absolvers will seamlessly encounter others in the world, generating unique stories that emerge through player interaction and choices. These moments are filled with tension as intentions to battle or befriend are never clear: trust is always a leap of faith. Encounters will have lasting consequences and transform into meaningful relationships as you make friends or enemies and find mentors or disciples.

Offline Single-Player Experience Available: Journey on an adventure that will take you from Prospect to Absolver in an exciting campaign, available both online and offline. The single-player mode pits you, and you alone, against lost Prospects and legendary warriors in the ruins of the Adal empire - complete with all content, free of interactions and encounters with other players.

PvP and PvE: Explore a rich and dynamic world including dedicated PvP battle arenas where champions will receive spoils of victory and progress in the ranks of the Absolvers, and PvE areas in which players cooperatively battle to retrieve rare loot and equipment from the ruins of Adal.

ABSOLVER CONTENT UPDATES
The development team at Sloclap is dedicated to improving and expanding Absolver based on community feedback once the game is live. In the coming weeks and months, Prospects can expect regular updates to the game to fix any issues that appear, as well as both minor and major content updates. These updates already include 3v3 Game Mode and a Spectator Mode soon after launch, but many more updates can be expected, from new combat styles and moves to new powers and equipment.


Please note:
Absolver features public crossplay matches which you can play with your friends regardless where the game was purchased (PC only).
Multiplayer Notice: Please note that GOG GALAXY is required to access Multiplayer. Some fighting techniques and boss fight rematches must be one-time unlocked in online mode. Once unlocked, they carry over to the single player game."

Awesome mechanics

Solid fighting game that rewards observation, patience and strategy while punishing button mashing. It's not twitch either, which for me is a plus. PVP is adrenaline pumping fun, PVE have been more a way to practice for PVP. Also there's apparently coop, but I haven't even tried it yet. Also, georgeous.

Good game, but not if you need a minimap

That's a good game, exactly what I expected. As mentioned before the story is short. The main story will be finished within 4 to 6 hours. They promised to bring future content for free so I expect the story will be continued. Good machanics and the graphics as well as the sound are fine too. All together it fits the story and the ambient very well. The camera is sometimes a bit clonky. I only played with keyboard and it works suprisingly good.

Can't Wait For More!

Some people need to loosen up. The game seriously just got released, f you dont have anything constructive to say then don't bother. I beat the game in 12 and a half hours. Im sure they are working on more content and a better pvp module. There are also still bugs and glitches that need to be fixed, they are working on it. If you want to be productive then you should join the forums and post what you want to see changed or added within the game.

Customizable Fighting Game

SERVERS ARE STABLE NOW! It's safe to try! It's what I always wanted, a fighting game that lets you customize yuour own moves, discovering new techniques out in the wild and challengin you to string them together in inventive and useful ways. Everything has a counter, every choice is meaningful, and the fights generally feel fair and fun. Easy to learn, hard to master, anmd the server issues have been fixed. No more crashing glitches or dropped connections.
