Soulframe keeps growing with new RPG customisation, a dungeon inspired by Blue Prince and a wizard's staff

Summary
Soulframe is an action RPG developed by Digital Extremes, the creators of Warframe, and while it “has the bones of a great action RPG”, it is still in the stage of a “relentlessly expanding limited-access beta”
Now in its tenth edition, it is soon to expand upon the new Motes and Runes upgrades system, while adding throwable secondary weapons, a wizard’s staff, and new enemies.
These include a boss character, the Tired King, who is reminiscent of the Ringwraiths from Lord of the Rings, and the second in-game event, the Festival of the Circus, which takes inspiration from The Blue Prince.
Soulframe casts the player as a “lonely roving paladin” in a realm of enchanted animals, and blends sword and sorcery with a graceful procession of combos, parries, buffs, projectiles, and finishers.
While the ambiance is immersive, the lore writing can be fey, and the weapons and equipment art is robustly attractive without being excessively flashy.
