Greetings Dudes, The time foretold is finally upon us, we can tell you what we’ve been working on! We’d actually started the process of this new update before even starting the Halloween update last year, because as it turns out, video games take time to make, and major updates take longer. So here it is, our upcoming update to the game: [b]Infernax: Deux Or Die[/b]. [previewyoutube=IBloan3tgBs;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]It's Time to Duet[/h3] This Spring, return to the lands of Upel as the Duke Alcedor, this time joined by your trusty squire Cervul as you attempt to regain control from the forces that plague your dutchy. The new mode is playable as a standard 2-player local co-op [i](with support for Steam remote play)[/i] or as one player hot-swap mode that allows a single person to control both characters by switching on the fly. We've beefed up the forces of evil that plague the land to give an appropriate amount of challenge for a team, as well as integrating Cervul into the story of the game. We've modified the castles to provide additional challenge as well, so that returning players and first-time players will both find something interesting waiting for them. (By interesting, we mean [i]very deadly.[/i]) [b]Of course, like all other updates to Infernax we've released, this will be available free to all owners of the game, and included in all future purchases.[/b] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35741385/f2014507420c8a65f065eaf43f2a916727d9a505.png[/img] [h3]Introducing: Cervul The Squire[/h3] Cervul is so much more than a copy of Alcedor, in fact he plays [i]entirely[/i] different. Unlike the straight-forward mace and shield that Alcedor carries, Cervul is equipped with thrown weapons that give him the ability to be a great support in fights, as well as allowing him to attack in ways Alcedor can’t. Though he has abilities that allow him to attack directly forward, Cervul will find it challenging to go it alone, so teamwork is essential to success.

In fact there are two sets of both tools and basic attacks for Cervul, depending on which morality path you follow in a playthrough. In a future post we will break down Cervul’s abilities to give you an even better idea of what kind of gameplay the squire brings to Infernax.

You might want to make sure you don’t give player 2 your s#!%&y loaner controller though, you’ll need them in tip-top form. Take it easy, and we'll be back soon with more details! -Berzerk Team
