A Souls-inspired sandbox RPG game
Duel Corp is an action RPG game that blends a sandbox open world with MMO elements. Navigate a fragmented land where a mysterious event has "darkened all eyes," resulting in cursed immortality and restless dead, offering a rich, non-linear experience that can be enjoyed solo or with a group of friends.
Defeat the dark, be the light bringer
Duel Corp features a flexible class system, allowing you to mix weapons, armor, and abilities freely. The combat is direction-based and tactical, rewarding precision and timing. Whether conquering villages to collect taxes or exploring procedurally generated encounters, it feels alive and reactive, blending retro pixel-art aesthetics with modern, fluid 2D-HD graphics.
However, it suffers from balancing issues and punishing mechanics that can feel unfair. Players often lose hard-earned currency due to strange bugs or over-tuned enemy AI that reads inputs perfectly. Additionally, the multiplayer matchmaking is inconsistent, and the lack of transparency in skill numbers makes it difficult to optimize character builds.
A lot to love and improve upon
In conclusion, Duel Corp captures the thrill of open-ended exploration and challenging combat. Its creativity and unique visual style are major highlights for fans of the genre. While technical glitches and balancing quirks can be a headache, the core gameplay loop remains satisfying for those who enjoy a tough, atmospheric adventure.
