The next phase of the alpha for Ashes of Creation is starting soon. In a livestream, the developers showcased the first gameplay from Alpha 1.
Active combat in Ashes of Creation: Alpha 1 is primarily intended to test the combat of Ashes of Creation. In the previous Alpha 0, the combat system consisted of classic tab-targeting. An action system is planned for Alpha 1.
The current testing phases of Ashes of Creation focus on all combat elements present in the game. During the first phase “Alpha 1”, battlegrounds in the open world, sieges, and town defenses will be available.
The second phase will deliver a hybrid combat system and talent trees. Additionally, players will progress to level 20, with 4 races, 8 classes, and many further features. Alpha 1 is set to launch in September.
The entire livestream from the developers on August 17, 2018, lasted over an hour, where some new concept arts were also shown, and further content was discussed.
