    The new Alpha Build for War Within dropped and with it, we have access to Hallowfall! We had a glimpse of this zone last week, but nothing could prepare me for the beauty of what the Devs had created. Genuinely might become my new favourite zone to just hang out in!
    We've got plenty more videos coming in over the next week so be sure to give a thumbs up and subscribe!
