Meanwhile, Gates of Fire is essentially Century’s take on the capture the flag game type where players gain points by manurvering through checkpoints for as long as they hold the flag. Carnage is your regular Team Deathmatch style affair with 12 players splitting into two teams of six to devastate each other with power ups that randomly spawn on the map. Wrapped around the Century’s central premise of being a fearsome dragon rider are four primary game modes that each provide a unique hook. It also doesn’t hurt that Century: Age of Ashes is extremely welcoming to new players, with a handy (if unskippable) tutorial that shows fresh faces the requisite ropes while a range of practice and unranked modes also allow wannabe Targaryens to find their feet/claws at their own speed.įurther Reading – Best Free PS5 Games Ranked In 2022 – Great PS5 Games At Zero Cost When taken in tandem with the innately superb handling of the dragons themselves, not to mention the vast range of natural hazards in the environment, combat in Century: Age of Ashes turns out to be a highly satisfying endeavour indeed. Meanwhile the unlockable Stormraiser class can unleash a blinding wave that not only damages foes, but stuns them for an extended stretch. The Phantom class has a limited time invisibility skill that can not only allow them to escape immediate danger, but also turn them into an extremely effective airbourne assassin of sorts. In addition to the expected longer range fireball attacks and close proximity fire breath strikes that can drain the health bar of your enemy very quickly indeed, each of the four classes also provide their own unique special abilities and skills that can spice things up further. When it comes to the combat side of things, Century: Age of Ashes acquits itself ably here too.
