Eko Software has released a large free update for their Warhammer action-RPG, Warhammer: Chaosbane.
The new update adds the game’s fifth character, Keela the Dwarf Engineer. Keela’s playstyle is focused around short to mid-range combat using her arsenal of dwarven inventions, including scatterguns, flamethrowers, and defensive turrets.
You can see Keela in action in the new trailer below.
The update also adds a new act to the game, The Forges of Nuln. In addition to new quests and story content, there’s several new enemies to fight as well. You can read more about the whole patch here.
You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:
In a world ravaged by war and dominated by magic, you are the last hope for the Empire of Man against the Chaos hordes.
