Hammerwatch II (PC) Preview - Retconned, refined, and RPG-ified!
The early access demo for Crackshell’s Hammerwatch II is everything I wanted from a hand-crafted Hammerwatch sequel and there’s a good chance it’ll bring back fans that disliked the inherently repetitive, procedurally-generated, rogue-lite structure of Heroes of Hammerwatch.
It fleshes out the story and lore; brings back the sprawling, secret-filled dungeons as interconnected regions like in the Temple of the Sun expansion; expands upon the character build and gear system from Heroes of Hammerwatch to bring it closer to that of a traditional RPG; and it enhances the visual style to support beautiful over-world areas, more varied interiors, and more distinctive character sprites.
