Crowfall Launches Pre-Alpha 4.0, Introduces Factions

Crowfall is launching Pre-Alpha 4.0 this weekend, which means the introductions of a key aspect to the game's ongoing conflicts: factions. In the initial ruleset players will choose between one of three factions: Chaos, Balance, or Order. Sound familiar? Keep in mind, you have to be devoted. No switching between factions until the campaign is completed.

No, you can't attack any members of your own faction. Which can be thankful in the heat of battle. The Templar archetype will also be available this weekend: a two-handed sword wielding warrior who uses the blade to pass judgment.

Players with access to the playtest servers will be able to test out Alpha 4.0 this weekend.

Crowfall has some pristine wallpapers on the official announcement page, one of which was used as the banner image of this article. The game is coming together nicely, with frequent updates. Looking forward to jumping in and experiencing it for myself some time this year.
