Did you want “Genshin with out gacha”? What if it’s Genshin with out gacha however not the identical form of gacha? What if it’s principally the identical form of “we’re not making the characters gacha” that Crystal of Atlan and a number of different gacha video games coming westward have already tried? What if we take this afternoon to separate some hairs and possibly depend what number of angels can dance on the top of a pin?
OK, proper, the sport you’re right here to examine. It’s an anime RPG known as Duet Evening Abyss, the studio is Pan Studio, it’s printed by Hero Video games on PC and cellular, and it’s speaking up the removing of its gacha techniques. Because it occurs, it nonetheless has gacha for its cosmetics, simply not for characters and weapons, so please don’t be fooled into considering all of the gacha has been stripped out. Softa gacha? We’d like a reputation for this extra palatable spin on the subgenre.
As of the launch right now, the sport is F2P on PC (official launcher and EGS) and cellular, with Steam coming “quickly.” In reality, Steam is why we began paying consideration right here as a result of whereas we will’t discover any reference to multiplayer within the press supplies, the Steam web page explicitly refers to on-line co-op and cross-platform multiplayer. This seems to be correct; there are apparently multiplayer hub zones in addition to dungeons and “commissions.” The launch-day video is beneath, however you would possibly wish to brush up on our Gachapwned sequence first.
