    I came into Spellbreak hesitant for yet another entry into the Battle Royale genre and yet I’m sitting here writing this a convert; it looks and sounds great, and the core gameplay is unique enough among its peers that it is easy to recommend if you fancy something that doesn’t rely on traditional gunplay. Of course, the usual FTP monetisation is present, but it’s a small (optional) price to play for what is an incredibly fun game.

    While the Battle Royale genre is oversaturated at the best of times, Spellbreak manages to carve its own niche with its wildly unique battlemage gameplay and extremely colorful visuals. With the promise of more modes to come, I’m excited to see how Spellbreak evolves over time, as it already feels decently balanced in its current state and a literal blast to play.

    When it comes to battle royal games, you certainly can't do much better than Spellbreak. Its clever use of casting combinations of magic spells while soaring through lovely environments makes it one exciting and delightful online experience.

    Spellbreak therefore proves to be a promising title but with still partially unexpressed potential, although the decision to focus on cross play and cross progression since the debut is absolutely worthy of a convinced applause.

    A new participant arrives in the battle royale arena. With originality and unique touches, Spellbreak seeks to quickly take over a good portion of the players.

    Hopefully the development teams are listening to the players, because while it's a highly recommendable game right now, Spellbreak has the potential to become a great one.

    Spellbreak's shortcomings at launch make it a far less compelling experience than many of the other battle royale games on the market. It will undoubtedly get better with future updates, and not only that, Spellbreak supports cross-play and is free-to-play. Battle royale fans looking for something that's a little different flavor than the military shooters that dominate the genre have no real reason not to give it a go, but they should keep their expectations in check.

The world feels massive and exploring it to get ready for the inevitable combat is half the fun. All the gauntlets feel well balanced and some of the combinations you will discover are pretty awesome (Did someone say fire tornado?)
    I am excited to see what they can do with this title and look forward to playing much more of it.    … Expand

It has some bugs sure but that's why its in it development stages. The gauntlets powers are well balanced but i feel like the flight rune should be able to control more. Besides that its a very nice game I LOVE the graphics and the art style. I see a great future for this game… Expand

Spellbreak features a deep item and class system that allows players to dominate the Hollow Lands as a solo competitor or play with friends in a non-stop quest for survival.Be a Pyromancer and cast massive Flame walls as you fly across the battlefield. Turn around and toss a Toxic Cloud to turn the whole thing into Dragonfire! Or maybe you’d rather be a storm-riding Tempest and launch yourself skyward with a Tornado or pull your enemies into it only to cast a shocking lightning storm? Team up with friends on other platforms and lay a path of ice for everyone to skate on as a Frostborn. Mix and match dozens of spells, sorceries, runes and items with six different classes to match your own play-style. Play with your friends and enemies in multiple game modes, including Battle Royale and Clash.
    Follow along with the story from month to month as a part of the Chapter system to uncover what’s going on in the Hollow Lands and the world of Spellbreak and earn exclusive rewards. Spellbreak has been in development for years and the Dev team is looking forward to feedback and I strongly suspect them to expand upon the existing game with future improvements and DLCs for the Xbox One.    … Expand
