Anvil has an addictive gameplay loop with interesting roguelike mechanics. Not only do the art style, visuals and audio support the level of excitement encounters have to offer, but also, chasing after random loot together with changing playstyles depending on the Breaker you choose are worthy endeavors to keep you playing for longer periods of time.
However, there are some issues in terms of the lack of lore, voice acting, and imbalanced boss encounters. But I’m hoping that a lot will change for the better when the game fully launches. If you’re looking for a fast-paced, sci-fi action, roguelike shooter that will bring in changes every couple of months, then you’ll want to give Anvil a try. You can play its Early Access version in a few days although no price has been listed yet.

Definitely going to be playing with friends and its on XBOX Gamepass.
Looks cool 😎
If that's all on WASD, I'm down af. If it's 'twin stick' it moves down the list a little…
Risk of rain 2 is the only rogue-like game that’s satisfying to replay over and over again if this game feels anything like that itll do well.
So Anvil early access will be on gamepass Dec 2, cool. When will the full version drop again?
On Gamepass Dec 2 so def gonna give it a shot
It seems to me like this game is pushing more of GaaS narrative when your saying that seasons reset.
Too bad its top down
looks fun! good 👍
first time enjoying top down action game in a while since ps1 game, love it
Can anyone speak to how this compares with The Ascent? They seem similar to me.
if seasons are like poe in contents wise, I am 200% in it. But if it is like D3 ladder, I am not sure about it
I'm so excited and happy this game is gonna be available. I played early access a few months back and it was a lot of fun. They've made changes since then which I'm happy to see and I know it's only gonna get better
Is this on PlayStation?
Of they support this enough this could be a very popular game
It looks cool but bosses are really horrible to fight. Feel more like bullet sponges and upgrades are boring as hell in this game. The menu is also terrible using a mouse and keyboard since for whatever reason clicking the item isn't enough. Have to click and press a keybinding that defaults to a terrible position.
Do we know what the co-op will be like?
Elsa looks underpowered compared to the other 2
Is this game available on PS4??? I can't find it.
This a a boring ass game with no reward of entertainment.. most players this game will get is from gamepass…
Bruh I'm not playing if I can't get op outside of playing every match I need a actual skill point system etc maybe armor etc I can use everywhere I know it's a rogue like but I feels like this would.be better as a Diablo type when it comes to skill rather than pure rogue lik
THIS IS AN ASSET FLIP OF GIGANTIC X, A YEARS OLD MOBILE GAME!
Which puts into context why there are so many issues with balancing and planned premium pass monetization and seasonal resets of player progression
Any word if this is coming to PlayStation?
Gigantic X sequel?
Nothing like Warframe in any way other than the sci-fi genre… Anvil is great, risk of rain great too. Only level 21 in this season for anvil but 3500+ hours in Warframe and the two are nothing alike
Anything is better than Warframe 😀 😀 😀
This looks really good…it remind me Alien Swarm, the gameplay was cool and nice and action packed…and then it died 🙁 shame…
more games like Alien Swarm or Spiral knight!!!
Plays better than Lost Ark and doesn't have a p2w grind… I am signed up
It is very a like Gigantic X, just with a bit better graphic
New to your channel liking some of it so far. But you sound like one of your staff played this game and then wrote you a script to read. You sound board reading it which makes me board listening and watching this video. Less is more and make it seem like more of a personal experience not like you are publishing an article.
The person playing at 0:23 is mentally slow or what ?.. Dont they know that they can rotate the ice beam ? OR this is considered advanced ? loooool
i like the game, but my issue with it is the slow progression. And knowing u will lose most of what u gained which it isnt much already kinda turns me off. Since even if u spam runs on the first galaxy u gain very little exp or point towards the season pass. and even when u get a a lvl u only gain 1 point to upgrade or 3 which is very little since upgrades only give u so little to begin with so yeah imo they need to increase the ammount of stuff u get per lvl or just make upgrades better so its impactful when u get even only 1 point in it.
My only issue is bosses feel extremely spongy to where if you don’t have a self heal build you’ll most likely die so hope they fix that cause I find the game fun.
Look, im trying not to sound too negative here but comparing this to warframe is a huge huge huge huge stretch…. It has a UI and colors but that is where the warframe comparison ends. This is nothing like warframe and the fact that steam compares it to warframe is also weird and a tad ridiculous frankly.
Maybe arpg? Maybe diablo with sci-fi shit? But warframe? HOW? :))
Waframe even when I quit years ago with 300+ hours was really leading the market honestly from the ammount of features, depth, scale and customization perspective but this is like comparing tetris to minecraft.
The season wipe really turns me off. Would be an insta-buy without that!
Only downside of this game is the bosses, and the weird op robots that spawn in with bosses
The problem with this game is upgrading your character is so limited which makes it impossible to finish the third galaxy
Looks like a top-down Godfall.
