Spellsworn Fantasy MOBA Hits Alpha

If you’ve read this interview with Frogsong Studios then you may be interested to know that Spellsworn their magic-based fantasy MOBA, is about to cross a very significant milestone and head into Alpha, version 0.8.

The move to alpha, from a development perspective this is a very good thing but more importantly (and slightly more selfishly) this means that Spellsworn gets a whole load of new game features, skins and general improvements to the core game for all us players. Hoorah!

So, what exactly should we expect to see in the Alpha version of Spellsworn?

Well, firstly if you’re a Johnny no-mates like me (I’m kidding… Well half-kidding) you can now add AI controlled bots into the game to fight against or to boost your numbers in a match with your friends. You can add them with one of three levels of difficulty, so you can really punish them or yourself depending on how you feel.

The full list of everything they’ve added is below…

Added: Bots – pit yourself against AI-controlled, soulless opponents, available with three difficulty levels!
Added: Level up rewards – new rewards have been added for reaching level milestones
Added: Staves – 17 new staves have been added to the game
Added: New Skins – 3 new skins have been added – Outcast, Arbiter and Enthralled
Added: Non-damage dealing spells can still give you Assist.
Renamed the ‘Standard Chest’ and the ‘Standard Key’ to ‘Plain Chest’ and ‘Plain Key’.
Improved the Customization Menu
Added: New skin icons
Updated existing skin icons
