The combat side of Nightingale is pretty polished, giving you access to 7 different types of melee weapons and four types of firearms. In addition to that, you also get access to a total of 18 spells.

Blending these weapons gives you a lot of flexibility in choosing your playstyle. And considering the enemy varieties in the game, it’s a good thing.

Now, Magic in Nightingale works mainly like enchantments or charms. You can imbue your weapon with different magical elements, such as flame or lightning. Without using the right elemental buffs on your weapons, you’ll see that you won’t deal good damage numbers to the enemy.

In the trailer, we also get to see the Bramble Wall spell that spawns branches from the ground to restrict enemy movement and give you some much-needed breathing room. You can also cast healing spells to top up your health.

Nightingale’s fluid combat system lets you use all of your magic and combat abilities quickly without having to go through different menus. You get complete control over your playstyle and can use the battlefield any way you see fit.

You can also use magic outside of combat. There are enchantments that you can put on your tools that can grow an entire forest in the blink of an eye. You can also put charms on different tools to increase its harvesting efficiency. In other words, you’ll loot more resources with the tool when you use it.

Overall, this game is shaping up to be one of the biggest hits this year, with clever game design and combat mechanics. We, for one, can’t wait to see what more the devs have planned for us in the future!
