Godfall is now just a week away from being released with the launch of the PlayStation 5, and the developer has just shared new details on how custom loadouts will affect your strategy in the gameplay.
The information was shared on the official Sony PlayStation Blog alongside the launch trailer of Godfall. Check it out below:
Godfall will have the Seventh Sanctum where you can freely train before heading out for missions. Learn your characters move with the training construct, choose a loadout, upgrade loot or swap Valorplates, there is a lot of experiment and select the best loadout for your character.
Before you step in for a mission, you should select the Valorplate that you think will work best for you. Counterplay Games gives an example of Vertigo, where her Valorplate symbolizes wisdom and allows us to supercharge our shock damage, rewarding electrifying build paths that deal damage over time.
When you have chosen your Valorplate, you are ready to select some gear. Your character screen will show you attributes and equipment slots for weapons. Weapons are a big part of Godfall, where you can quickly swap them from the other equipped weapon. You can check out each weapon’s stats, special effects, or get a close look at eh weapon itself.
The blog also talks about the first boss that you fight in the first mission of the game, called the mighty Thraex.
As you reach the end of Tormentor’s Asylum, you’ll find a room housing the Thraex. The Thraex are proto-dragons that are extremely territorial, making them excellent guardians, like a fire-breathing German Shepard. This challenging fight will require every tool in your arsenal. Banner up, throw on Archon Mode, and lay into the beast while dancing around its attacks.
The most dangerous place to be is right in front of it. Use side dodges to get a good angle of attack and sneak in a few strikes before the Thraex counters. And when it fires its laser, make sure to get that shield up or slide on under.
After you defeat the boss, there is plenty of well-deserved loot to pick up and start using on your own character.
Godfall is set to release for the PlayStation 5 and PC on November 12, 2020. Post your comments below and let us know what you think of Godfall and its custom loadouts.
