It’s certainly a disappointment, considering the genre, to have such an uninteresting loot cycle dominate the early and mid parts of the game. At times, it feels as if you can go an hour or two before finding a substantial upgrade. Despite some great design work for later game gear, a huge chunk of the game involves swapping in similar pieces for small stat buffs. Unfortunately, aesthetic is about as good as it gets when it comes to the loot. By the end of my playthrough with Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition, I looked and felt powerful. Top tier armour looks great, which at times feels like a lost art in games where equipment affects your level. There’s a lot more diversity in both design and colour, really allowing for unique playthroughs of the game. The newer armour and weapon varieties are great however, especially the former.

The visuals are good, but remain uninspiring. There’s intrigue there, but a lot of that comes from the game's writing rather than art design. Despite those tweaks, the game's scenery does feel repetitive - only it’s prettier now.Įven with the graphical tweaks and more vibrant colour scheme, the game world does lack that spark. I found the original version of the game had scenery that felt bland at times, however the updated resolutions and graphical tweaks really help a once dull scenery shine. Updating to 4K really shows the details of the game's background too. The harder difficulties are able to throw more at the player too.

Regardless of how chaotic the screen becomes, the game maintains a smooth 60FPS. The performance tweaks are noticeable from the get-go. This edition of Warhammer: Chaosban contains the base game experience, the two DLC chapters and updated visuals and performance tweaks that take advantage of the new generation’s hardware.
