Realms Beyond Alpha Gameplay Video

After giving us a brief glimpse at their game’s combat back in April, the Ceres Games team brings us a new development update for their upcoming cRPG Realms Beyond that features roughly 26 minutes of turn-based alpha combat footage. If you’re interested in a proper D&D-inspired computer RPG, you should probably check it out, because for an alpha, the game looks quite impressive:

A few words from the developers:

Finally, we completed the first iteration of the combat system and recorded a HD video to demonstrate it to you.

If YouTube starts the video in low, blurry quality, please change the resolution manually to 1080p60 or 720p60.

Please be aware, due to the nature of alpha versions, the user interface (especially placeholder icons) and a other elements such as sounds, camera, FXs and animations are still work in progress and therefore not final.

If you wonder about the Wizard’s overcrowded spellbook: We made every spell available (according to his 9th level) for testing purposes. Under real circumstances, he wouldn’t had so many spells already unlocked.

We appreciate hearing your feedback and suggestions for improvements related to the combat system.

Also, based on your feedback to previously published screenshots, we reworked the ground terrain textures and the level itself to improve the readability of the scene.
