Clash: Artifacts of Chaos gameplay
Much like the previous games in the series, Clash: Artifacts of Chaos is an action-adventure video game. The game puts a lot of focus on hand-to-hand combat, with the player able to use various stances in their fights. Each of these stances has its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, the Spear stance lets players do attacks that have long range and reach. This is a first in the series, along with the ability to customize your character's abilities, attributes, and more.
Another new feature this game brings to the series is its switch from first-person to third-person. This gives players a better view of their surroundings, as well as better awareness of their positioning. The game still switches to a first-person view now and then. However, it is only during the times when the player carries out finisher attacks.
