Spellbreak, from developers Proletariat Inc., has looked promising ever since its reveal more than a year ago. Curious players have been able to get a taste through a number of closed betas over the past few months but we now have an official release date for the much-anticipated battle royale. Accompanied with a slick cinematic trailer, it was announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live that Spellbreak would be releasing September 3–just next week.

The game’s frantic spellcasting and clean, cell-shaded art style definitely has me intrigued. And, as far as I know, it’s the only battle royale to have butt-rock guitar-shredding in its launch trailer so I’m pretty much sold, to be honest.
Spellbreak is free-to-play and is coming to Xbox One, PS4, Switch, and PC through the Epic Games Store.
