. I fell into the game’s rhythm about 15 minutes into my three-hour preview, and by the end, I was shepherding small groups of lost souls across Inferno like I worked for Satan himself. In its simplest terms, 33 Immortals

33 Immortals. One wayward dodge might push you into the path of a stumbling army of headless titans, who were, until just now, chasing some other poor soul. I’m speaking of this from experience. I’m just helpful like that.

Of all of these, I found myself spending most of my interactions with Beatrice, tracking my various Feats and working to increase my Level and eventually unlock even more features.

At the moment only four weapons based on either cardinal sins or virtues are available—Sword of Justice, Daggers of Greed, Staff of Sloth, and Bow of Hope—though hints of future additions, like a halberd, appear in the game’s official artwork.

The game begins with a 33-player map, Inferno, which is an arid wasteland of roaming demons, 12 Torture Chambers and one big ascension battle to complete. The minions running around Inferno are easy enough to dispatch for practice and Em excesso bones (the game’s currency), or you can run right by them without punishment. Torture Chambers are miniboss rooms designed for six players to tackle at once, but you can enter them with fewer than six, even alone. However, you’re unlikely to get far solo. The minibosses are hulking skeletons and big, flopping demon worms with plenty of health, and they always have hordes of minions as backup.

While that isn’t a massive amount of time to pump into a roguelike, I think I managed to grasp the title’s unique gameplay loop and the direction the developers want to take it.

are visually breathtaking, blending medieval manuscript aesthetics with nightmarish, apocalyptic imagery. Thunder Lotus’ hand-drawn style is rich in detail, from illuminated script menus to grotesque, hellish landscapes straight out of a horror series—complete with mutilated devilish bodies around the map.

I’m surprised that it’s not launching for the Xbox One alongside the Series X

isn’t without its flaws. The movement system feels stiff, with attacks locking you in place and dashes on a very brief, frustrating cooldown. Early on, this makes combat feel clunky and restrictive, and while later upgrades help smooth things out, it still never reaches the fluidity you’d expect from a game that throws you into such chaotic battles.

In the same options menu, control bindings for both keyboard and mouse, and controllers, are missing. I did not have any issues with the existing control scheme, but that doesn’t mean this shouldn’t be a launch feature, even for an early access experience.

Il faudra ainsi passer notamment par l’Inferno et le 33 Immortals Gameplay Purgatoire pour prouver sa valeur, dans une cohorte por, on vous le donne en mille, 33 Immortels. Une valeur qui n’est pas là par hasard, puisqu’il s’agit du nombre exact de chapitres composant la Divine Comédie. 

Vu notre temps imparti relativement court, nous n’avons toutefois pas pu explorer plus avant cette partie por la progression. Il faudra donc creuser plus profondé especialmentement la question dans sa version early access disponible dès aujourd’hui. 

A perk that reduces the cooldown of the dash by one second was one of my absolute favorites to randomly find, this made the game feel more agile and reactive, where I can be an aggressive force in the battlefield instead of being on the defensive so much and saving my dodge for later. Instances where I had this perk was also when I progressed the furthest in the final boss fight. Going back to the standard 2 second dodge cooldown in later runs felt like such a downgrade, making the gameplay feel noticeably slower and less responsive compared to when I had the perk.
