Tribes of Midgard will test your survival skills this July
Gearbox Publishing have announced that Norsfell Games co-op action survival RPG, Tribes of Midgard, will launch on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC on July 30, check out the latest trailer for it below.
Players will need to hack and slash through enemies, monsters and Jötnar (Giants), all to thrive in the wilderness as you collect the resources necessary to defend your village from a nightly invasion of Helthings.
Your tribe’s might will be tested in two different game modes: a session-based Saga Mode and an endless Survival Mode.
“Tribes of Midgard is the right kind of game for anyone who wants to test their Viking skills. People who want to play solo can face a great challenge on their own, and folks who want to play with friends will have a blast - we think we’ve found the perfect balance,” says Julian Maroda, Co-Founder, CEO, and Creative Director at Norsfell. “We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this game, and what came out is a bright, lively world with engaging, class-based co-op combat that players can explore and survive together.”
You’ll take control of an Einherjar, a glorious Viking hero in Valhalla, hand-picked by the Valkyries to protect the Seeds and save Midgard. Tribes of Midgard is designed from the ground up with both solo and co-op play in mind, so bring as many as nine other Einherjar with you - the game automatically balances the challenge based on your party size. You’ll work together to bolster your defenses, venture into the unknown wilderness, defeat monsters and Giants, and more! Choose among eight different classes and numerous combat styles to suit your playstyle.
Most players will enjoy the Saga mode, where they will have to find supplies, craft items and buildings, as they fight against epic world bosses before Fimbulwinter - the prophesied endless winter that signals Ragnarök’s arrival. This mode will receive seasonal updates that add new content, bosses and more on a regular basis.
For those that want a real challenge though, there is Survival mode. As the name suggests, this is a survival-focused sandbox that will challenge players, with defending their village against a constant flow of enemies that become stronger the longer they survive.
