Thanks to the addition of alien technology, Cyborg can provide ranged attacks with heavy damage. Since he starts out hitting hard Cyborg’s additional attacks augment and compliment his normal basic attack to make them even more effective. Players can find even more information in the video embedded below.

CI Games, the studio behind Sniper Ghost Warrior and its sequel have announced that more information about their upcoming fantasy RPG, Lords of the Fallen will be unveiled at this year’s Role Play Convention from Cologne, Germany. The information will be presented via a panel discussion and Q&A session with members of the Lords of the Fallen team.

Tomasz Gop, the Executive Producer of Lords of the Fallen will be among the team members handling the presentation from, and is particularly excited about sharing more details about the game’s features. One key feature that Gop seems excited to talk about is the gameplay balancing and difficulty levels of the title. He has stated that;

A challenge in games can be measured with the difference between randomness and skill. Our goal is to make a game that rewards players for doing what it takes to cross that gap. A game where learning skills and ultimately mastering them is the basis of fun and entertainment.

For those who cannot make it all the way to Germany for the convention, fear not! CI Games will be officially unveiling and presenting Lords of the Fallen in a playable form at this year’s E3. With that in mind, be sure to stay tuned to Capsule Computers for all the information about Lords of the Fallen coming as it becomes available.
