Warhammer: Chaosbane is having a second closed beta

Warhammer: Chaosbane, the forthcoming action-RPG set in Warhammer's Old World, is currently having its second closed beta for those who have pre-ordered.

 New in this beta are the game's other two classes, the dwarf trollslayer and elf scout, and local or online multiplayer is available for up to four players. Players will be able to test out some of the second act, set in the city of Praag, as well as a reworked version of the first act from the previous beta.

The beta runs until April 24, and the finished game will be out on June 4.

Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
