New Action-RPG Vindictus: Defying Fate Announced

Nexon has announced Vindictus: Defying Fate, a new high-speed fantasy action-RPG inspired by Celtic mythology that, yes, shares a universe with Nexon's own 2010 MMORPG, Vindictus. It is in development for PC, with a console release planned for sometime after the PC release.


Nexon says it will be conducting a public pre-alpha test for the PC version in "the coming weeks." You must wishlist Vindictus: Defying Fate in order to be eligible to participate. Check out the announcement trailer above and the first screenshots in the gallery below.


Nexon promises plenty of character customization and challenge in the medieval fantasy setting. "Play with a large roster of distinct characters, each boasting unique abilities and combos, including series favorites Lann and Fiona," Nexon adds, mentioning the callback to the heroes of the 2010 MMORPG. Large Irish-mythology-inspired monsters that "tower over your character" as well as plenty of challenge are also promised.
