Parrying, dodging and supernatural powers

The first-person combat system emphasizes parries, quick dodges and targeted finishing attacks. Different weapons are combined with supernatural abilities. William also uses the power altered by the plague to strengthen existing attacks and unlock new abilities.

Movement is not only for combat. Increased mobility helps you explore devastated locations and find shortcuts and secrets. This is a single-player action RPG, not a co-op multiplayer game.
