Mage Knight: Apocalypse Preview

The folks at Games Radar have conjured up a new three-page hands-on preview of Namco’s upcoming action RPG, Mage Knight: Apocalypse.

Each of the five main characters represented a “core” class, but also featured up to three different sub-classes within each. The drop-dead gorgeous, undead Kithana could follow a necromancer, assassin or vampire path; Tal Windstrider, the paladin, could take on martial, healer or holy spell-caster duties; Janos Freeborn is a face-mauling tank of a Dwarf, but could also become adept with firearms or explosives. Considering the replayability of some of our favorite action/RPGs, this is the kind of flexibility we like to see.
