Berserk and the Band of the Hawk—the game adaptation of the Berserk fantasy manga series which has inspired such games as Dark Souls and Dragon’s Dogma. Today, publisher Koei Tecmo has however now dropped three new English language trailers which better showcase the game’s combat in practice.
Berserk is a musou hack-and-slasher in the vein of Dynasty Warriors, thus how it goes about its swordplay and slaughter is, clearly, pretty important.
Main protagonist Guts boasts a wide-ranging arsenal, so says Koei Tecmo, each of weapon which alters the pace of the game. The Dragonslayer Great Sword, for example, facilitates devastating attacks, while automatic guns and projectiles offer ranged alternatives. Some of that plays out here.
Berserk and the Band of the Hawk is due February 21, 2017 on PC via Steam.
