ACTION RPG WOLCEN: LORDS OF MAYHEM OUT NOW ON PC THROUGH STEAM EARLY ACCESS

Wolcen Studio’s Open World Game – Previously Titled Umbra – Enters Alpha Development
NICE, France – March 24, 2016 – Wolcen Studio, the independent game company formerly known as Solarfall Games, has released the open world action role-playing game Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem into alpha development on Window PC through Steam Early Access.

At the launch of early access, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem – successfully crowdfunded by over 11,000 Kickstarter backers as Umbra – will introduce players to the fundamentals of its world, hack-and-slash gameplay and progression systems. Players who enter the game now will get to explore large segments of its expansive open world, with environments designed for elemental interaction and destruction. New characters can develop without class limitations, and there are already tons of loot, weapons, armor, potions and spells to discover.
Over time, the team will progressively add new features that evolve the core experience of Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem with feedback from the community. Players can expect to use one of the game’s most exciting combat mechanics – Apocalyptic Form – in the near future, letting characters develop distinct special abilities and appearances based on individual play style. As alpha moves forward, the game will grow even further with a full co-op mode, advanced weapon and armor crafting, player housing, and the ability to transform player houses into challenging dungeons that can be shared with the community.

Set in a dystopian land of fantasy and intrigue, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem follows a former army officer and fugitive, on the run from authorities after mysteriously acquiring magical powers. In order to uncover the secrets behind the evil corrupting the realm, players will have to battle against threats both human and otherwise, facing the dangers that lay in its darkest depths.

Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem is available now for $19.99 on Windows PC via Steam Early Access. For more information as development progresses, please follow the game on Facebook and Twitter.
