Protecting and escorting the war machines to their goalposts will allow teams to destroy their opponent's giant totems. Great for crowd control.Īrms Race is a mode where players escort six war machines (three for each team) after capturing three separate footholds. Each foothold provides different strategies one is for quick respawning, one is for depleting the opponents' military strength, and the last one has a huge canon overlooking a courtyard.

A team can claim victory by capturing and holding more footholds which deplete foes' military strength. Yi: In the Onslaught mode, players fight to capture footholds and drive back the enemy. What are the main objectives in a typical Onslaught or Arms Race session and how do teams go about ultimately winning? Shacknews: Walk me through a typical Warhaven session. We're hoping to provide a different interpretation of medieval fantasy. Because the Soldiers and the Immortals play quite differently, players will be able to use magic and supernatural powers as Immortals and have a lot of fantastical fun!Īlthough the technological background comes from the medieval era, there are unique items created or brought by Immortals through time and space these may operate as an over-technology in the setting of Warhaven. Soldier characters can transform into an incarnation of the Immortals during battle by acheiving kills and assits. Herarth, the world within Warhaven, is a multicultural world filled with elements from fantasy like magic and Immortals. What would you say sets Warhaven apart from the pack?Įunseok Yi, Game Director at Nexon Korea: Warhaven is not based in a historically accurate medieval European setting.

Shacknews: There are a few games like this on the market right now: a game where teams can battle with medieval weaponry. He offers an overview of what Warhaven is, as well as what players can expect to see down the road. We were eager to learn more about Warhaven and were happy to hear from Game Director Eunseok Yi at Nexon Korea.

All of this adds up to some intense 16v16 multiplayer action. On top of that, players can turn the tide of battle by becoming powerful godlike beings known as Immortals. It's a class-based competitive multiplayer game like few others out there, taking players into a Medieval fantasy realm and arming them with swords and sorcery. The path to glory lies on the battlefield in the upcoming Warhaven.
