Achilles: Legends Untold closed beta starts this week

Achilles: Legends Untold will have a closed beta, Dark Point Games has confirmed. It will start on January 27th. The beta will allow players to experience the isometric combat of Achilles: Legends Untold during the Siege of Troy. In this beta, players will take on characters such as Hektor and Paris while controlling the legendary Greek warrior Achilles. Players that are interested in joining the beta for Achilles: Legends Untold will have to join the game’s official Discord server.

The description for the game reads: “The combat in Achilles: Legends Untold brings a unique isometric approach to traditional Souls-like gameplay. Learning enemy movements and timing your attacks will be key, while Dark Point Games also added devastating special abilities like the shield toss to overwhelm enemies with Achilles’ raw power. This way, Achilles: Legends Untold may be enjoyed by souls veterans and new players alike. The gameplay features satisfying and skill-based combat, RPG elements, and resource management. Collect raw materials to bring to the forge to create new deadly weapons and sturdy shields to take Achilles to the peak of his power. As you watch Achilles become stronger and more ferocious with each ability you pick up, you as the player will also have to adapt to the world, as Achilles is not the only one picking up new tricks along the way.”

Enemies will work together to take down Achilles trying different approaches as they learn the player’s way of combat. Achilles: Legends Untold has so far been confirmed for PC via Steam, and it is expected to enter an Early Acces phase during the next couple of months.
