![]() ![]() But this is Dominion and they wanted to have a different experience than the typical Battle Royal, so at the start of a match before dropping in you’ll meet the Merchant where you’ll choose your Gauntlet and Rune. Even if your team is doing terrible and have no possession of any of the capture spots, you’ll still earn at least one point for player exiles. You’ll also net points for exiling enemy players, adding to your team's score based on how many objectives you currently control. ![]() There are two ways to win the match, either by fulfilling the score requirement or whichever team has the most points at the end of the 15 minute match, which feels like a fair amount of time, though there is no Overtime. Like most objective based modes, you’ll need to stand within one of the three capture points indicated by symbols instead of typical A, B and C, which once captured, will start to slowly earn your team points towards the total. There’s also a few other surprises in store for Dominion, as you’ll want to capture and get 150 points to win, though this value will fluctuate slightly if not playing in a full 5v5 match, but you can also expect a light PvE element with NPC’s to kill and a completely unique upgrade and respawn system. While the maps are sections from the larger Battle Royale one you already know, these are sectioned off areas that are much smaller in size without the Fracture closing in or moving the playspace at all. This new small scale mode, Dominion, is a 5v5 objective based map where you’ll need to capture points on one of the four new maps. While the Battle Royale will still be included and playable, developers Proletariat wanted a new mode, which is where Dominion comes into play. We were invited via a demo to check out this exciting update, so while we weren’t able to get our actual hands on the gameplay, we got to ask a bunch of questions and get a rundown of all the new changes and additions for Spellbreak’s Chapter 2 while a few matches between developers playing unfolded.ĭue for release in less than a week on April 8th, The Fracture isn’t just a cool sounding name, it’s actually the term for the pits of the Hollow Lands where you become instantly exiled should you fall into them whereas the 'border' that shrinks in Battle Royale is the Spellstorm, so this Chapter will actually give you some its lore as to its history and why it’s there. We got an opportunity to check out Spellbreak’s next big update coming out shortly, titled The Fracture. For those uninitiated, Spellbreak is a free-to-play (with crossplay) Battle Royale, but with a twist you’re a Battlemage, so instead of traditional guns to hunt down your enemies, you sling spells from six different elements, combining to make some unique outcomes. Competitive players can also prove themselves in ranked Leagues while playing Dominion, advancing to Legend status and collecting exclusive badges and other cosmetic rewards.I quite enjoyed my time with Spellbreak when it released last September, of which you can read our full review of the game here. The new Dominion mode will turn Spellbreak combat on its ear with intense 5 versus 5 matches where players vie for control over three strategic points on the game map while exiling as many opponents as possible. ![]() “Chapter 2: The Fracture continues our unique blend of storytelling and gameplay, further expanding the world of Spellbreak and opening up new opportunities for players to connect.” “With the introduction of Leagues as part of the new Dominion game mode, the competition in Spellbreak has never been fiercer,” said Seth Sivak, CEO of Proletariat. Chapter 2 is the most significant update to the game since launch and will introduce competitive Leagues, objective-based Dominion game mode, new quest-based story content, improved matchmaking, map updates, new Talents, cosmetic items, and more. Independent game studio Proletariat today announced that Chapter 2: The Fracture, the latest update for their multiplayer action-spellcasting game, Spellbreak, is now available on the PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
