It runs great, and feels satisfying to play-with ARPGs somehow feeling so much different in controller play than mouse and keyboard play to me, I’m glad Chaosbane’s controller setup is satisfying. But that doesn’t mean Chaosbane is lacking on console-in fact, my experience with Chaosbane on my Series X is pretty much on par with my PC experience. Not having a dodge is too bad, because I think that was a brilliant move by Blizzard to add more action to the ARPG genre.

Does it live up to the next gen hype? Not really. But this time, I had the opportunity to play it all on Microsoft’s newest flagship console, the Xbox Series X. The Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition is two more episodes of Chaosbane, with a couple of new player classes thrown in. I think I even went so far as to call it akin to an unofficial expansion for Diablo III-just one that isn’t as polished as Blizzard’s beloved ARPG. In it, I make the argument that Warhammer: Chaosbane is closer to a Diablo clone than it is its own brand of action role-playing game (ARPG). You can check out my original review of Chaosbane here. That’s the case for previous released Warhammer: Chaosbane, which comes to the Xbox Series X|S with its complete Slayer Edition which includes new characters, more levels, and a graphics overhaul to bring it to standard for the next generation-sort of. Or at least, older games with “ultimate” or “complete” editions released with shiny new graphics updates. The next generation of consoles is here, and that means fresh and shiny new games for these new consoles. Screenshot: Warhammer Chaosbane Slayer Edition
