Launching into early access on July 31st, Rend is a new siege warfare game with a spin. It features both pvp and pve sieges. In the vein of Fortnite you have a base to defend and you must build up fortifications to protect it from waves of relentless foes. In addition, it has a 3 faction siege warfare mechanic built into the game. Choose from the armies of the militaristic Order, enlightened Revenant, and mysterious Conclave as they wage war in an ongoing struggle to survive. Choose your allegiance wisely: your brothers and sisters will prove pivotal in your journey towards ascension.
Rend is a team-based survival game set in the fabled universe of Nordic myth. This epic fantasy world is a harsh domain where the strong ascend as gods. You must choose from three rival factions, combine forces to build your team’s stronghold, and battle foes and brutal creatures. Together, you will endure the dangers of Rend’s treacherous landscapes to discover valuable resources and powerful artifacts. With the game’s deep talent trees and skill systems, you’ll have the freedom to choose how you want to fight for your team’s victory. When a cycle ends, one faction will be declared the winner… but the end is only the beginning. Victorious players will receive rewards they can use in subsequent cycles as they ascend to legendary heights as heroes.
I will be hosting Rend events in August on Saturdays at 11AM PT. Rend will be a buy-to-play game like Guild Wars 2 with a starting price of $29.99 during Early Access. You can see how far on their development roadmap they are at: https://www.rendgame.com/roadmap. If you're on the fence, be sure to watch my livestream on August 4th at 11AM PT to see if it's a game you might enjoy. If you've been burned by Early Access games in the past, please do due diligence to make sure it is in a state that you wish to play. Our good friend Evan "Scapes" Beerman is the head of the community on this one and remembers us well from our days working with him at Trion. There's a good possibility we may end up getting some things to give away.
If the game is fun and we decide to keep playing it past it's first month of early access, we will rotate it in our weekly Sunday Weekend Warriors livestream. Being I haven't ever had the chance to play and all I’ve seen is trailer footage, I have no way of telling if it's going to sink or swim. I just hope for my friend’s sake that it does well.
