In this video I give my first impressions on Wolcen: Lords Of Mayhem, a game that initially released to Steam early access in 2016 to mostly positive reviews.

Wolcen is an isometric ARPG/hack and slash that differentiates itself by allowing the player to rotate the camera and make use of an active dodge ability, the game is made in Cry Engine and features nice graphics, player housing, elemental spells that interact with the environment, classless combat system, advanced boss mechanics, randomly generated dungeons and a semi open world.
