![]() In many ways, it has a lot in common with the arcade game Gauntlet Legends, since so much of this game is focused on traversing huge maps and killing anything and everything that moves and pillaging for loot. Victor Vran is not much of an RPG and does not have much adventuring or meaningful character interactions at all. The other 29% of the game is backtracking through emptied maps, looking for items or secrets that might have been missed, and the last remaining percentage is spent reading character dialogue in the hubs. Since Victor is a very combat centred character, expect about 70% of the game to be hacking and slashing seemingly endless hordes of monsters. There are also a few spells that can be equipped, and at a certain level, up to two can be carried, which are activated via the left and right triggers. Other ways that Victor Vran allows customisation the protagonist is the various tarot cards that offer a multitude of perks, like vampiric healing or an off-chance of releasing a fireball attack based on enemy health, although it is unfortunate that these can't be stacked. Each of the various weapon classes, like the swords, hammers, scythes and various fire arms, all have their distinct ability set, and since there are a ton of modifiers, expect to seldom rely on a single weapon.Īfter a few level-ups, Victor will even be able to switch between two weapons on the fly, although it really should have been an ability from the start. It is really surprising how much polish is in the combat, although the dodge roll could use more invincibility frames and Victor has a useless ground pound. The control and overall action in Victor Vran is top notch. Unlike similar games of this ilk, like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, Victor Vran is an action-RPG that is not centred on classes, and instead chooses to give Victor a very specialized set of actions, like dodge rolling and jumping (with wall jumping!), and more reliance on melee action. It plays like a very polished Diablo game, with a distant overhead point of view with fluid and responsive controls. Victor Vran: Overkill Edition stars Victor Vran, demon hunter extraordinaire, who happens to have some demon blood in him and is no relation to anyone in Devil May Cry.
