Not sure if the characters are even locked. Probably just have their own stat distribution and ults. Premades as opposed to "character creation" but you can probably level them and equip them as you want
Seriously. Really odd that they allow single player and three player but not two. It doesn't seem like it should be that difficult to tune a game mode in between the two they've already created for it, and they're going to miss out on a lot of sales because of that omission
@@anaguma90 there will be 8 hero classes with different abilities instead of creating your own character and every session starts level 1 and you make do with whatever loot you find across the map
Same , my friends dont even have PCs they just play console and not often. When they do play something it's just cod, rocket league and red dead redemption 2
idk if I like the idea of this new character system, I liked being able to make your character how ever you wanted to, not be being forced into what class you started
This is the only gripe I have so far. Looks fun but I would like to level up and get loot that carries over from session to session with my own character. Starting from square one everytime is not my jam
Its probably for balance. Balancing a game like this would be hell if you could make your own build. That's why pvp falls so hard, too many people min maxing bleed builds and one shots.
This isnt the kind of game I usually play, but I love anything Elden Ring/ Dark Souls related. From Software could make an Elden Ring romance visual novel and I'd play the hell out of it.
They always produce quality so even when it's a game like this out of the ordinary i would still play it. I even olaued Armored Core and i usually dislike mechas but it was pretty good.
@@allhopeabandon7831 Fromsoftware has only released bangers after bangers, what are on about? If you want to complain about not having "nice things", complain about it on a Ubisoft video, cuz all they've released recently were garbage after garbage.
@@Kamawan0 It's not really re-using assets, it's featuring characters. Reusing assets is when you take animations or assets from another character and reapply them. For example, Pontiff Sulyvahn and Rellana share many animations, Arorias, the Abysswalker and Slave Knight Gael do aswell. That's because the same assets were reused. In DS1, there are many reused assets from Demons Souls. Smough also has the same animations as Asylum Demon and so do the other clone bosses. In DS2, Mystery Ornstein has the same animations as Ornstein. That's reusing assets, because you are taking assets from the files of another game and reapplying them in a different one. The Centipede Demon in Nightreign isn't even the same asset as DS1, both the model and animations are new because the original assets are too outdated to port over. Same with Duke's Dear Freja, it's an entirely new model and likely a complete overhaul since it's a co-op game, will likely split into two spiders as originally intended. You can't really call these reused assets because they have never been used previously, only similar assets (because they are the same bosses, just different versions from different generations). The Nameless King, sure while they are reusing his exact model, they are not re-using all of his animations. Furthermore, considering that Nightreign is an official Dark Souls+ Elden Ring crossover, it's mind of the whole point that there will be returning characters. You're not going to be fighting a boss called John the Dragonrider who looks suspiciously like the Nameless King, it literally is the Nameless King from the Dark Souls franchise, featured as one of the crossover bosses, if that makes sense. The whole reused assets argument is incredibly silly.
This sounds like it would be a mini gamemode within elden ring that you play with your friends once every couple weeks lol not sure how great this is gonna be. No story, rushing all the time, no exploring. idk man.
Its gonna be fun asf, we don't always need deep hidden lore and sexy places to explore. I see fun long hours of elden ring/souls gameplay with the bros and sick fromsoft anime movesets for days.
Ngl sounds better as dlc, doesnt sound like it should be a full priced game either. Depends on how much replayability there is and if theres any carry over between sessions.
This sounds amazing! Seamless, cinders, roguelite, randomizer turbo mode all in one sounds so great. This is basically Fromsoft souls games mixed with Monster Hunter and Risk of Rain. The game will never get old unlike how the other games can get stale with knowing exactly what is going to happen each time you play, this is unlimited experiences. Will buy this day 1.
I have a friend that love souls like and a friend that love rouglike and i love and play rouglike and soulslike the perfekt game that we can play in coop 😂
@MaschMa maybe it is in the works. Thus dude did play an early access of the game and if they have 3 players, they might add duos later. They scale down for solos so they might have to set a power scale in between for duos. I hope they add 4 player Co op but make super hard bosses to counter balance it so it feels like raid bosses or something
Not having duos is idiotic. Most people only have one other to play with….. making it 3s only is just plain dumb.. there is no way they would be that oblivious. I’m sure by launch we would have 1-2-3 player modes. If not then this game is probably not going to do as well.
@@Ada_DXM People are theorizing they repurposed that rumoured Tencent ER mobile game into Nightreign, and judging by the fact they just copy/pasted enemies from the Dark Souls trilogy, I'm starting to believe them
I appreciate that the game allows solo play, but I'll be really disappointed if there’s no cross-play. My friends all have PlayStations, and I have a PC. I was fine playing the single-player mode on my own because I enjoy the challenge, so not being able to play online with friends wasn’t a big deal. But this game seems designed for multiplayer. Elden Ring is my favorite game, and since the original game and DLC don’t offer cross-play, I'm worried and a bit hesitant to dive in since I don’t have any friends that have a PC to play it with.
Haters be damned. Fans have been asking for some sort of boss rush mode a while now and this looks like a creative means of accomplishing what would be a boring feature in a vacuum.
I am so stoked for this game! I just hope I can find and convince a couple of friends to play with me. And while its not live service game, I do wonder if they have plans for more content to add on as it goes. New bosses, areas, weapons, etc.
@@KimJungGooner from the interview with IGN and the director, it looks like you can purchase skin, color tone swap for characters using Murk. Not sure where you earn Murk from though as they did not clarify that part. But rest assure they did say no micro-trans, no live service related stuff so no battle pass.
Not gonna lie...this feels weird. Feels like they're selling out and trying to make the game into something more befitting the multiplayer trends of today. ...Is this what original Dark Souls fans feel like?
On one hand as an original dark souls fan enjoyer. I do kinda see this as very fanservicey. On the other hand... fuck it. Its clearly a spinoff. The closest I've ever seen another franchise pull this self universe fuckery is hyrule warriors. I think if the game is fun and is done well I won't mind at all.
If I remember correctly its similar to ds2 with testing different things to see what players like and what works. Alongside that since Miyazaki isn't working on it is safe to assume he's working on something bigger while another director is gaining experience from working on this. 🙂
@@Frogorius Yes!!! FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!! I've been saying this sort of thing for years about DS2. That game for as experimental as it was, was pivitol to the future development of Souls games. This spinoff title will be no different. Clearly what they want to experiment more with is CO-OP gameplay. Specifically how to make Co-op gameplay challenging and fun for all players without completely dogwalking a boss by abusing the single minded AI. Hopefully this adresses those concerns drastically.
The coop stuff may not be everyone's cup of tea but this makes me hopeful that their next full game will have more fast paced and dynamic combat/exploration like this. Sekiro but with even more combos and the usual RPG system would be the dream game for me.
Im the opposite lol I want them to slow it down, bring it back to the slower tense exploration of the earlier souls games. I typically aint into fast paced action games at all like ninja gaiden, nier automata, dmc or bayonetta and from seem to be heading more and more in that pure action direction. Its the slow exploration with the shield up hoping you dont get jumped while exploring worn down castles that is my fave aspect of froms souls games :) Demons souls and dark souls were perfect for me.
@@Terron29 I think the problem for something like Nier for me os that the combat is fast paces without much depth it's basically a bunch of button mashing. There are a lot of combos without much reason to use then and low enemy variety. Fast paced isn't good by itself.
I’m a bit disappointed that it’s a rogue like and not a fully explorable map, but I’m really excited for the other stuff. Also, I’m sure the modders will be able to easily rip the assets straight out of this Elden Ring and put them in the older Elden Ring. Since they have the same base.
Sure there will be haters but I think this is a brilliant remix of the original games. Such a fun concept to take a real fromsoft game and make it a roguelite for the hardcore crowd. Hoping there will be online matchmaking though, not sure my friends are down for this
I was never a quest game type of person, but Elden Ring is the absolute best game iver ever seen. Hands down. Ive been around since the original Nintendo so im not young.
Ikr I watched this in mid of showing it to my friend to play with him the last second I hear that.. I guess we're not advanced enough to make a fromsoft souls co op yet mby in 5 years if we lucky *sigh*
Rogue-like coop? Now I'm away less excited, but again they made this in like a year so that's expected. This is not for me but I hope others can enjoy it while I wait for the next FS game (assuming Sony doesn't turn it into an exclusive)
To me, Elden ring is best played as a quiet and lonely experience. While it’s cool that they’re adding co-op, I’ll probably still play it alone. I liked the fact that the world was cold and desolate, and I was on my own.
False. Elden Ring is best played solo until you've finished your 120-150 build and then using that character to co-op with others and duel in the arena while testing different playstyles your build can support in order to plan the next character to blow 500 hours of life time on.
@rascalthecat666 It's just a pet peeve of mine lol For the very short periods he was on screen he could've just memorised the line and said it making eye contact with the camera.
There’s only one more thing FromSoft could possibly do to make Elden Ring more perfect… permanent multiplayer, where friends can stay in your world even after beating a boss instead of having to resummoning them… or giving the Tarnished an AC.
Totally isn't that Lava centipede from DS1. Certainly didn't give you a ring for walking on lava either. What next, IGN ragequits after they encounter the "brand new" Capra Demon.
supporting solo play and 3 player coop but not 2 player co-op is ridiculous. If it can scale enemies to 1 from 3, why not 2?! Not buying the game if that's the case on launch. And I have a feeling, judging by the comments, that I'm not alone in that sentiment. I also have a feeling that if it's not in the game at launch, it's going to be one of those things FromSoft will stubbornly insist is not possible even though seamless coop mods exist for the base game.
Firstly I’m extremely excited. But I also wonder if this was Miyazaki’s idea or what he wanted or if it was something that he HAD to agree to as a part of whatever Elden ring deals they have set up. Just feels so different from the usual design philosophy
I honestly believe this wasn't FULLY his decision, as in, he didn't want to make another one, but whoever funds his studio realizes that Elden Ring has massive potential for making money, so they told him to make something that would also be capable of breaching into the multiplayer market since that's where the majority of the industry's money lies. I'm cautiously optimistic only because like you said, its an entirely different formula.
according to interviews this was actually a first-time game director's idea at the studio that Miyazaki looked over and greenlit. The game director (Junya Ishizaki) has been a combat designer/director for previous souls games, including elden ring. This is just one fromsoft dev's passion project, not a corporate mandate
@@Mavixiol no, its somebody else and its being made for fun. Please for the love of god stop thinking every company is the same and just let the game come out.
So no customizable avatars, no keeping progress, just repeatable matches of night/day cycles ending with boss fights. Do you get anything for winning or losing matches? Most match based games only have longevity due to having an in game currency and store so players want to earn things. This just sounds like another gamemode like arena that they could have added to elden ring as an extra patch rather than a whole other game.
They’ve already confirmed there’s a story that progresses so meta progression will clearly be in the game. They’ve also mentioned you can unlock skins for the characters (using an in-game currency called Murk), so there’s some customization for them.
You gain powerups that keep betweeen sessions and each character has its own story that progresses as you play. And you can customize them with skins. And all of that from just one trailer and one interview. Stop talking out of your ass
I’d assume progression be a bit like hades. More gets unlocked like a new heat. With an opportunity to add new bosses and story elements until the full picture is put together many runs in.

@@anaguma90 there will be 8 hero classes with different abilities instead of creating your own character and every session starts level 1 and you make do with whatever loot you find across the map
Same , my friends dont even have PCs they just play console and not often. When they do play something it's just cod, rocket league and red dead redemption 2
One thing I’m wondering about is what incentives will there be to actually survive until the end?
idk if I like the idea of this new character system, I liked being able to make your character how ever you wanted to, not be being forced into what class you started
This is the only gripe I have so far. Looks fun but I would like to level up and get loot that carries over from session to session with my own character. Starting from square one everytime is not my jam
I would prefer that too will still be giving this a shot though.
Tbf if it’s a rougelike then u probably will keep stuff rouge likes u gain more stuff every time u due
@GigglesBiggelsthat's the definition of a rogueLITE. Roguelikes, you don't unlock new thinga
Its probably for balance. Balancing a game like this would be hell if you could make your own build. That's why pvp falls so hard, too many people min maxing bleed builds and one shots.
This isnt the kind of game I usually play, but I love anything Elden Ring/ Dark Souls related. From Software could make an Elden Ring romance visual novel and I'd play the hell out of it.
You are why we can't have nice things. You are a 'good' CoNsUmEr...

@@airone7794 i thought the tiny spider we saw in the trailer looked like the DS2 spiders. Very cool. 😎
I mean I alrrady saw Nameless King and Firekeeper. But i only now noticed we also have Centipe Demon back
There was also one of Duke's Dear Freja's Spiders at one point.
Duke's Dear Freja is in there as well. They're re-using so many assets that it's not making me want to suddenly stop playing the older games.
Weirdly enough im excited to fight centipede demon on a more fast paced souls game since ds1. He might be an absolute menace.
@@Kamawan0
It's not really re-using assets, it's featuring characters.
Reusing assets is when you take animations or assets from another character and reapply them.
For example, Pontiff Sulyvahn and Rellana share many animations, Arorias, the Abysswalker and Slave Knight Gael do aswell. That's because the same assets were reused.
In DS1, there are many reused assets from Demons Souls. Smough also has the same animations as Asylum Demon and so do the other clone bosses. In DS2, Mystery Ornstein has the same animations as Ornstein.
That's reusing assets, because you are taking assets from the files of another game and reapplying them in a different one.
The Centipede Demon in Nightreign isn't even the same asset as DS1, both the model and animations are new because the original assets are too outdated to port over. Same with Duke's Dear Freja, it's an entirely new model and likely a complete overhaul since it's a co-op game, will likely split into two spiders as originally intended. You can't really call these reused assets because they have never been used previously, only similar assets (because they are the same bosses, just different versions from different generations).
The Nameless King, sure while they are reusing his exact model, they are not re-using all of his animations. Furthermore, considering that Nightreign is an official Dark Souls+ Elden Ring crossover, it's mind of the whole point that there will be returning characters.
You're not going to be fighting a boss called John the Dragonrider who looks suspiciously like the Nameless King, it literally is the Nameless King from the Dark Souls franchise, featured as one of the crossover bosses, if that makes sense.
The whole reused assets argument is incredibly silly.
This sounds like it would be a mini gamemode within elden ring that you play with your friends once every couple weeks lol not sure how great this is gonna be. No story, rushing all the time, no exploring. idk man.
It is a small game they are working on bigger projects right now
I feel the same way ngl and if its a whole new game wouldn't that be like 70 dollars for basically a gamemode.
Its gonna be fun asf, we don't always need deep hidden lore and sexy places to explore. I see fun long hours of elden ring/souls gameplay with the bros and sick fromsoft anime movesets for days.

The fact that you can play both co-op and singleplayer is crazy. I can't wait
This sounds amazing! Seamless, cinders, roguelite, randomizer turbo mode all in one sounds so great. This is basically Fromsoft souls games mixed with Monster Hunter and Risk of Rain. The game will never get old unlike how the other games can get stale with knowing exactly what is going to happen each time you play, this is unlimited experiences. Will buy this day 1.
I have a friend that love souls like and a friend that love rouglike and i love and play rouglike and soulslike the perfekt game that we can play in coop 😂
I just hope they add something like Bosco from DRG for single players so I can continue to avoid social interactions for my entire life
Why would they not make duo possible, that is way easier than being 3 people.
@@MaschMa if you can play solo I would t be surprised if you could also play duo
@@SIsReal it’s confirmed in an ign interview that 2 player coop is not supported. Only single player and 3 player coop are available.
@MaschMa maybe it is in the works. Thus dude did play an early access of the game and if they have 3 players, they might add duos later. They scale down for solos so they might have to set a power scale in between for duos. I hope they add 4 player Co op but make super hard bosses to counter balance it so it feels like raid bosses or something
@@yeahkeen2905 That's absolutely silly for a game relying on match-making. What are they even thinking lmao
Not having duos is idiotic. Most people only have one other to play with….. making it 3s only is just plain dumb.. there is no way they would be that oblivious.
I’m sure by launch we would have 1-2-3 player modes. If not then this game is probably not going to do as well.
I love anything fromsoft has put out as far as dark souls ext, so i expect this to be just as entertaining. Very exited to get some time in on this .
They gotta add a duo mode Me and my bro don't need a rando ruining everything.

Nah Fromsoft's lost the plot. A roguelike extraction type of game lmao, Miyazaki should've vetoed this

Love the experimentation and can't wait!!!
2:34 the pause on his face after saying that was golden! 😂😂😂
I appreciate that the game allows solo play, but I'll be really disappointed if there’s no cross-play. My friends all have PlayStations, and I have a PC. I was fine playing the single-player mode on my own because I enjoy the challenge, so not being able to play online with friends wasn’t a big deal. But this game seems designed for multiplayer. Elden Ring is my favorite game, and since the original game and DLC don’t offer cross-play, I'm worried and a bit hesitant to dive in since I don’t have any friends that have a PC to play it with.
This is a worry of mine too. I’m literally the opposite of you, all my friends play PC and I play ps5 lol
how do i know that's nameless king you asked? my instincts told me to dodge when i saw that animation
Hmmm. Love Elden Ring but pretty skeptical about this type of play - doesn’t sound like the souls that i love
same
So don’t play it
Because it's not the Souls you love, this is just them trying something different with a side project in between their big projects.
yeah its called being transformative something that helps gaming as a whole…
@@greatcoldemptinessAre you offended by his opinion?
Haters be damned. Fans have been asking for some sort of boss rush mode a while now and this looks like a creative means of accomplishing what would be a boring feature in a vacuum.
I am so stoked for this game!
I just hope I can find and convince a couple of friends to play with me.
And while its not live service game, I do wonder if they have plans for more content to add on as it goes. New bosses, areas, weapons, etc.
My only question: Will there be Fashion Souls? Can we make our character look as glamerous as possible?
It will be hard since here I can't create your character
@@KimJungGooner from the interview with IGN and the director, it looks like you can purchase skin, color tone swap for characters using Murk. Not sure where you earn Murk from though as they did not clarify that part. But rest assure they did say no micro-trans, no live service related stuff so no battle pass.
Wouldn't really make sense to choose your armor in a roguelike
@@minh7320 Well, apparently u get some kind of currency when you beat a run or even if u fail, so I'm guessing that's what Murk is.
@@gu3z185 Yea, but these games are all about the Fashion Souls. I literally didn't play Sekiro bc I couldn't play Dress Up with my character.
Not gonna lie...this feels weird. Feels like they're selling out and trying to make the game into something more befitting the multiplayer trends of today.
...Is this what original Dark Souls fans feel like?
its a spin off game, lete em have fun with it.
On one hand as an original dark souls fan enjoyer. I do kinda see this as very fanservicey.
On the other hand... fuck it.
Its clearly a spinoff. The closest I've ever seen another franchise pull this self universe fuckery is hyrule warriors.
I think if the game is fun and is done well I won't mind at all.
FS quality hasn’t waned for a decade plus. The success of recent games has allowed the studio to take some creative risks, nothing wrong with that.
If I remember correctly its similar to ds2 with testing different things to see what players like and what works. Alongside that since Miyazaki isn't working on it is safe to assume he's working on something bigger while another director is gaining experience from working on this. 🙂
@@Frogorius Yes!!! FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!!
I've been saying this sort of thing for years about DS2. That game for as experimental as it was, was pivitol to the future development of Souls games.
This spinoff title will be no different. Clearly what they want to experiment more with is CO-OP gameplay.
Specifically how to make Co-op gameplay challenging and fun for all players without completely dogwalking a boss by abusing the single minded AI.
Hopefully this adresses those concerns drastically.
It looks fantastic. Way to take success to create more. 🎉
I do hope we can play it in duos. Having solos and trios but not duos is kinda strange..
The coop stuff may not be everyone's cup of tea but this makes me hopeful that their next full game will have more fast paced and dynamic combat/exploration like this. Sekiro but with even more combos and the usual RPG system would be the dream game for me.
Im the opposite lol I want them to slow it down, bring it back to the slower tense exploration of the earlier souls games. I typically aint into fast paced action games at all like ninja gaiden, nier automata, dmc or bayonetta and from seem to be heading more and more in that pure action direction. Its the slow exploration with the shield up hoping you dont get jumped while exploring worn down castles that is my fave aspect of froms souls games :) Demons souls and dark souls were perfect for me.
@@Terron29well, we can hope they keep making both kind of games
@@Terron29 I think the problem for something like Nier for me os that the combat is fast paces without much depth it's basically a bunch of button mashing. There are a lot of combos without much reason to use then and low enemy variety. Fast paced isn't good by itself.
This is what I'm hoping. They really need to change up combat.
@@AbednegoKurioit's button mashing if you only spam one button lol, personal issue
The fact that Centipede Demon is back is just so bizarre but I love it
I’m a bit disappointed that it’s a rogue like and not a fully explorable map, but I’m really excited for the other stuff.
Also, I’m sure the modders will be able to easily rip the assets straight out of this Elden Ring and put them in the older Elden Ring. Since they have the same base.
Damn never thought about this, nameless I’m actual Elden ring gonna be so gas
Sure there will be haters but I think this is a brilliant remix of the original games. Such a fun concept to take a real fromsoft game and make it a roguelite for the hardcore crowd. Hoping there will be online matchmaking though, not sure my friends are down for this
Would be excited if it was playable in a duo. My partner and I would like to play it together without having to be joined by a random person.
it will, u can also play in duo
@@SamueleAnselmo11 how do you know? I’ve seen it’s only playable in either solo or trio

I've beat every From game. If I can do it, anyone can. I won't share my play times and I'm glad there isn't a death counter.
They are not that hard tbh even base elden ring had easy mode with mimic tear and op weapons
I was never a quest game type of person, but Elden Ring is the absolute best game iver ever seen. Hands down. Ive been around since the original Nintendo so im not young.
So like... 48ish?
Sounds like it's pretty much a 3D roguelike with a big focus on multiplayer. Not sure if it's really my thing.
I just hope the solo experience will be as polished as the squad experience
Pretty sure the squad experience would be more buggy lol
@ probably xD but they probably also put more time into the difficultly scaling and items etc. for the multiplayer
@@maartenbondt9600 I imagine bosses like the Cerberus where the split into 3 could get pretty rough solo unless there is scaling

This is like one of those persona dancing games but for Elden ring haha
To me, Elden ring is best played as a quiet and lonely experience. While it’s cool that they’re adding co-op, I’ll probably still play it alone. I liked the fact that the world was cold and desolate, and I was on my own.
Sounds like everyday life!
False. Elden Ring is best played solo until you've finished your 120-150 build and then using that character to co-op with others and duel in the arena while testing different playstyles your build can support in order to plan the next character to blow 500 hours of life time on.

supporting solo play and 3 player coop but not 2 player co-op is ridiculous. If it can scale enemies to 1 from 3, why not 2?! Not buying the game if that's the case on launch. And I have a feeling, judging by the comments, that I'm not alone in that sentiment.
I also have a feeling that if it's not in the game at launch, it's going to be one of those things FromSoft will stubbornly insist is not possible even though seamless coop mods exist for the base game.
SEAMLESS CO-OP DOESN'T WORK THE SAME AS THIS, THE BOSSES ARE FINE TUNED TO HAVE UNIQUE AI FOR THE AMOUNT OF PLAYERS!
seeing all the previous games bosses there you could really call it, at last, the land of the dead
Firstly I’m extremely excited. But I also wonder if this was Miyazaki’s idea or what he wanted or if it was something that he HAD to agree to as a part of whatever Elden ring deals they have set up. Just feels so different from the usual design philosophy
I honestly believe this wasn't FULLY his decision, as in, he didn't want to make another one, but whoever funds his studio realizes that Elden Ring has massive potential for making money, so they told him to make something that would also be capable of breaching into the multiplayer market since that's where the majority of the industry's money lies. I'm cautiously optimistic only because like you said, its an entirely different formula.
according to interviews this was actually a first-time game director's idea at the studio that Miyazaki looked over and greenlit. The game director (Junya Ishizaki) has been a combat designer/director for previous souls games, including elden ring. This is just one fromsoft dev's passion project, not a corporate mandate

@@Mavixiol no, its somebody else and its being made for fun. Please for the love of god stop thinking every company is the same and just let the game come out.

So no customizable avatars, no keeping progress, just repeatable matches of night/day cycles ending with boss fights.
Do you get anything for winning or losing matches? Most match based games only have longevity due to having an in game currency and store so players want to earn things.
This just sounds like another gamemode like arena that they could have added to elden ring as an extra patch rather than a whole other game.
Let's just wait and see (all we've got is the gameplay trailer so we'll have to wait for more trailers before we come to a conclusion)
They’ve already confirmed there’s a story that progresses so meta progression will clearly be in the game.
They’ve also mentioned you can unlock skins for the characters (using an in-game currency called Murk), so there’s some customization for them.
@@OccultEclipseIngame currency. Now there is a big change we might get skins that you can pay with real mone aka buying Ingame currency.
You gain powerups that keep betweeen sessions and each character has its own story that progresses as you play. And you can customize them with skins. And all of that from just one trailer and one interview.
Stop talking out of your ass
I’d assume progression be a bit like hades. More gets unlocked like a new heat. With an opportunity to add new bosses and story elements until the full picture is put together many runs in.
