Guard Crush Games' Absolum taps into the same things that the best action roguelikes do by delivering what fans of the genre love most — visceral, hard-hitting combat, worthwhile progression, and an eye-catching art style that makes the whole thing look good while doing it. As Absolum inches toward its eventual release, Guard Crush and publisher Dotemu have been steadily revealing more of the game, introducing new classes, showing off more of its progression systems, and generally peeling back the layers to expose Absolum as being one of the year's most promising roguelikes. But this latest hands-on preview is perhaps the best approximation of the full product we've gotten yet. #absolum #preview #upcoming #beat #continues
