Pick your poison with 13 weapon types
If there's one thing the Nioh games get right it's their combat, there are many options with so many weapon types and builds to make which means players have so many choices. Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is only enhancing this with 13 melee weapon types and distinctive skill sets known as the "Five Phases" to take advantage of which provide you with powerful Wizardry spells. Some examples of weapon types available are dual swords, glaives, straight swords, and Staves. Each individual weapon also has its own martial arts which are special abilities you can take advantage of with your spirit gauge, this means there are even significant differences within a single weapon type. Spirit is an energy source that you gain with the use of offensive moves and is spent on powerful abilities.
Oh, you can also summon divine beasts in combat when you're being overrun. Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is looking so exciting when it comes to combat and that's what we'd expect, so many options and so much to offer we can't wait to dive in and experience it with our own builds.
Not only can you customise your combat experience with the weapons you choose but also the way in which you approach combat. Stealth can lead to enormously powerful attacks reducing an enemy's morale rank and dealing enormous damage. There is also the deflect technique which allows you to parry incoming attacks by dodging at the last second; reducing your foe's spirit but increasing yours, mastering the parry window will help make you an unstoppable force of demonic destruction.
