Replay – Dark Messiah Of Might And Magic Elements

by Andrew Reiner on May 04, 2018 at 08:00 PM

Following the release of Arx Fatalis, Arkhane Studios began work on a sequel, but ended up shifting directions to incorporate the Might and Magic license after partnering with publisher Ubisoft. That game ended up becoming Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, a fun first-person adventure that makes great use of physics. As this episode of Replay quickly shows you, the environment can be used to defeat enemies. Many boxes are thrown, and wooden beams are smashed to crush soldiers. We also use our boot more than you would care to see to send enemies flying into fires.

To say the least, we loved revisiting this game, and ended up spending the entire hour playing it. If you want to see more of Dark Messiah in future episodes (or potentially as a Super Replay) let us know in the comments below. We didn't want to stop playing it.
