Armello Releases on September 1 for the PS4, Two New Characters Revealed

The first game from developer League of Geeks, Armello is releasing for the PlayStation 4 and PC/Mac/Linux on September 1 in North America and Europe.

To go along with the release date announcement for this fantasy board game come to life, two new characters were revealed:

The second hero from the Rat Clan, Zosha, the Whisper, takes advantage of the cover of night and goes into Stealth every sunset. While hidden from sight Zosha can outmaneuver her competition, avoiding aggressive heroes while also sneaking up on those who least expect it. Her low body stat means she must be careful to pick the right battles, but her unusually strong fight makes her a tough competitor to defend against, especially when her opponent can’t see her coming.

Barnaby, Screwloose, from the Rabbit Clan is an impressive tinkerer allowing him to swap items in and out of his inventory depending on what any given situation calls for, making him highly adaptable to multiple strategies. His self-made armor grants him a very high body stat allowing him to take several heavy blows from other characters, while a respectable fight score means he can also deliver tough strikes of his own.

Here’s the full description for Armello:
