The combat rarely becomes repetitive (although there are a few dungeons that could have been shorter and would have benefited from it) as it drip feeds new and ever improving weapons, abilities and card upgrades for you to use against a rotating blend of opponents. Some demons will test your skills while others serve as opportunities to use some of Victor’s more impressive abilities to Overkill tonnes of enemies at once. New enemies types (of which there are *plenty*) are incrementally introduced as you progress through the city and are constantly mixed up with older, more familiar foes to keep you on your toes. This is because this game plays to its strengths, focusing on the well implemented, satisfying and challenging combat. There’s very little dialogue and most of the quests in the game are combat oriented, requiring you to head to a location, bash the heads in of whatever is waiting for you and then returning to the quest giver to let them know. Unlike many of its peers, the game is exciting from beginning to end and even has a jump button (I know, I was as surprised as you are). Victor Vran certainly puts the “action” in “Action Role Playing Game”. Of course, nothing goes according to plan and Victor gets dragged into a war between the last remnants of the city’s human resistance and the demon hordes rising from below. You play as titular hero Victor Vran, a reluctant demon hunter who has arrived in the demon-infested city of Zagoravia searching for a friend who has gone missing.
Victor Vran is an almost-top-down aRPG set in a gothic fantasy world that’s designed to entertain as much as it is to challenge. It was at this moment, as I smashed Skeleton warriors to pieces with a giant hammer while having my intelligence insulted, that I fell in love with Victor Vran: Overkill Edition. I’m far too intelligent to be a simple Hunter like you”. The voice then followed up with the left hook of an insult “of course that’s not true. I smiled to myself, recognising the nod to the famous Skyrim meme.

I moved Victor Vran into a room full of Skeletons and “the voice”, a fiendish narrator to the game’s story, said “I was once a hunter like you, until I took an arrow to the knee”.
Victor Vran: Overkill Edition is an almost essential aRPG.
