Immortals of Aveum is one of the most unique titles on the near horizon, combining first-person shooting with magic and a surprisingly-large fantasy world. It can be hard to get your head around exactly what the game is, but thankfully, a new Immortals of Aveum deep-dive trailer has dropped, providing an overview of the game has to offer.
The trailer largely focuses on Immortals of Aveum’s first-person combat, with revolves around three colors of magic – Red (close-quarters offense), Blue (long-range offense), and Green (mobility). In addition to combat, we get some details about progression, with the game offering 25 unique spells and up 80 talents that can be unlocked via the game’s skill tree. Finally, we also get a peek at the game’s large semi-open world, which will offer up 12 unique biomes and three town-like hubs where you can talk to NPCs, accept quests, and buy gear. Check out the full trailer for yourself, below.
Here’s a bit more detail about Immortals of Aveum’s world…
“You’ll venture to many places during your time in Aveum, exploring twelve unique biomes across the world. You’ll quickly find yourself venturing through the larger world. Immortals of Aveum plays host to three bustling hubs where you can chat with local denizens, embark on missions, or refine your gear in the Forge. But Aveum is also home to vast reaches of wildness, vibrant landscapes, unknown depths, and ancient ruins from times of peace and war. Each of these can be filled with dangers, from Rashanian troops to beasts that are ever on the prowl. Between is all is the Wound, a formless, growing void that divides the land and constantly threatens to consume more. There is great mystery surrounding the existence of these vast depths, but the more imminent threat lies beyond it.
Though the Order of the Immortals fights on the side of Lucium, across the Wound is Rasharn, a large, prosperous kingdom and Lucium’s archenemy. This nation is led by the tyrant Sandrakk, and under his rule the armies of Rasharn have marched across the world, conquering and destroying any who stand in their way. Lucium is strong, but Rasharn’s might grows stronger every day. It’s now up to Jak and the Immortals to save not only their home but the homes of all free peoples of Aveum. Fight alongside daring warriors like Devyn and Zendara under the guidance of Grand Magnus Kirkan, meet characters who have their own agendas and goals, and become an Immortal.”
Immortals of Aveum is coming to PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5. The game was recently delayed for extra polish, and will now launch on August 22.
