Blood Ancestors Open Alpha Available Today
Starting today, Snowpeak Studio is beginning open testing of their team-based melee combat multiplayer game Blood Ancestors.
Start out by choosing from 18 different characters (each plays differently…though at this early stage just six are live) and then pick your desired build for each character, based on three strategies: offensive, defensive, and utility. From there, refine your characters further with over 150 skills to learn. Battle with friends, earn experience and become unstoppable!
“We have always enjoyed first person team focused multiplayer, games like Team Fortress, Overwatch, Chivalry, among others have been inspirations to our small studio and we wanted to create something that was different but feels familiar at the same time,” says David Broto, co-founder of Snowpeak Studio.
