NEXON :

SEOUL – Dec. 18, 2023 – Extreme action fighting game DNF Duel just added a deadly new Fighter to the lineup, “Battle Mage,” the third DLC character in the current Season Pass. DNF Duel inherits the essence of beloved RPG Dungeon Fighter Online in its transition to a 2.5D action-fighting experience. Characterized by fluid, combo-driven gameplay, players utilize unique character abilities and execute intricate strategies to outsmart, outplay and downright beat up their opponents to become masters of the Ultimate Will.

This beginner-level character is great for learning the ropes, but players shouldn’t underestimate her diminutive stature - Battle Mage’s close-quarter combat skills are only matched by her unparalleled magical prowess. These powers manifest as Chasers, arcane spheres infused with elemental properties. By consuming Chasers generated through specific actions, Battle Mage gains enhanced effects for a certain skill for a given period, adding strategic depth to her combat.
 
After transforming into an apostle, players can unlock Battle Mage’s fiery Awakening skill, “Quasar Explosion,” a colossal Chaser that obliterates adversaries in a spectacular explosion.
 
“We aimed for a delicate balance between user-friendly skills and the strategic potential of Chaser utilization,” said Kodani Ryosuke, director of DNF Duel. “We hope players enjoy battle with the Chaser as they embrace the mantle of Battle Mage.”
 
Battle Mage launched today alongside a new stage, Meister’s Laboratory, free of charge.
Season Pass, which includes Spectre, Brawler, Battle Mage, and two additional characters set to be released in the future is priced at $19.99, while individual DLC characters can be purchased separately for $6.99. Fans can view the Season Pass roadmap on DNF Duel’s official Youtube.
 
DNF Duel is available for PC (Steam®) and console (PlayStation® 4, PlayStation® 5, and Nintendo Switch™). Steam users can now enjoy crossplay with Epic Games Store users. To learn more about DNF Duel and future updates, please visit the official DNF Duel website, as well as the game’s official YouTube and Twitter channels found below.
 
Season Pass and DLC require the base game (sold separately) to play. Players will be required to download the latest version of the game.
