I love when Steam Next Fest season begins. The event begins today at 1 Eastern and runs until June 26. During this time, over 100 titles will be available to be demoed. One of the first to try on my list is Warhaven, the squad-based 16 vs. 16 medieval fantasy brawler. The first trailer was shown off not to long ago at Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest. Today, developer NEXON released a reveal trailer for Sihan, the latest playable map. This is the first playable demo since the Global Open Beta last October and introduces updated mechanics, new game modes and maps, and in-game events. This demo will also allow you to play as the swift and silent assassin, Hush. This demo offers a sampling of the game's roster, including six soldiers and four Immortals, each equipped with unique skills and combat actions.
If you are unsure which character and class you might find interesting here is the list of available characters during the demo: Soldiers
Blade: An exiled swordsman hellbent on revenge.
Spike: The proud sheriff of a nomad tribe who took part in the battlefield on behalf of her lover.
Warhammer: A former war prisoner who liberated his fellow inmates and now seeks a new meaning for his life in the battlefield.
Guardian: Formerly a heretic, this mace-bearer guardian found his faith in the Immortal’s battlefield.
Smoke: A benevolent aristocrat, deceived into a life of war in hopes of attaining salvation for her lost daughter.
Hush(NEW): An abandoned child of the desert, raised in the ways of the Whispering Stone, she seeks glory in the battlefield of the Immortals to restore her place in the order.
Immortals
Martyr: A humble farmer before her divine ascension, no oppressor shall escape her wrath.
Raven: A magic-casting crow turned human, ascended as an Immortal to carve a way for other magic users.
Hoet: Once a distinguished minister, and the mastermind behind the Suhto inquisition, Hoet eventually ascended as an Immortal, and with the rest of the pantheon seeks to make the world anew.
Darkgale: A kindhearted god of primal fury and the only surviving member of the original Immortal pantheon.
The Warhaven demo is available now and will remain accessible until June 26th through the official Steam game page. Warhaven is set to release on Windows PC through Steam this fall.
