- Players looking for online multiplayer may not find the listed local multiplayer format suitable.
Our take on Die for Valhalla!
Players who prefer stable character control may bounce off the possession system, which asks them to switch into fallen warriors, creatures, and objects. Hardcore players face another sharp barrier when permanent death combines with unknown potion effects in generated runs.
