Gameplay
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn – Official Extended Gameplay Overview Trailer
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is an action-adventure game played in the third-person perspective whose gameplay is described by the devs as an “explosive rogue-lite.” Using melee weapons and firearms, the player will have to battle against the old gods, fighting to conserve ammunition and using the valuable resource only when necessary.
Whether to use or conserve ammo will be an important balance for the player to strike as they explore the game’s open world.
Similar to other Souls-inspired games, Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a heavy emphasis on parrying. Successful attacks and parries will fill a gauge that when completed, impairs enemies and makes them susceptible to a one-hit-kill attack. Defeating enemies using the main character’s ax will also replenish ammunition for their firearm.
The player is accompanied by a fox-like creature named Enki. Enki can be used to distract and stun enemies, teleport the player, or infuse the player’s attacks with magic. Enki’s powers also allow the player to absorb bosses’ abilities.
With an open world divided into three different regions, players can take on side quests and partake in multiple side activities. While exploring this world, players can meet new allies who can accompany the player on their travels. Players can also obtain new weapons through exploration or by purchasing them from settlements.
Apart from new weapons, the game also offers progression through the purchase of permanent abilities.
