You may have already seen the latest Tides of Annihilation boss fight gameplay trailer from yesterday's Xbox Partner Preview showcase, but we've got an extended version of it that adds 19 extra seconds at the beginning. Check out that extended cut above as well as exclusive new screenshots in the gallery below.
This battle pits protagonist Gwendolyn fights against a powerful shape-shifting witch named Tyronoe. Gwendolyn is assisted in the fighting by the spear-wielding Sir Lamorak, a Knight of the Roundtable. The trailer also gives us a peek at the combat system called the Dual Frontline Battle System, as you will be able to control both Gwendolyn and Lamorak. We also get a glimpse at a story element with Tyronoe's creation of a mirror-like Folded Realm.
The developers tell IGN, "Through her quest for the Holy Grail, Gwendolyn will be able to find several knights to summon and command in the game, including notable Knights of the Roundtable from Arthurian mythology. More details including the number and names of Knights will be disclosed in the future, please stay tuned!"
If you missed the announcement trailer, catch it now. It's also worth taking a look at the 11-minute-long extended gameplay walkthrough. Tides of Annihilation will be available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5 (PS5).
