Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition takes full advantage of the power of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Overall, though, I don’t see much reason to play this game beyond its roughly 15 to 20-hour campaign. Again, you retread old levels here, but it throws in some occasional limited-time events and loot. Slightly more interesting is the Relic Hunt. In addition to the Tower of Chaos, there is also a Boss Rush that lets you replay boss fights. Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition Gameplay | Great Unclean One Boss Fight Once you clear a floor, you can either claim the chest in the room as a reward – ending your run – or continue to the next floor for better loot. Each floor has hordes of enemies for you to clear and sometimes has special objectives like killing enemies near fire pits. One of them is the Tower of Chaos, a gauntlet where you (and a friend, if you prefer) fight one floor at a time. Once you complete the campaign, there are a few things that you can do. Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition takes grinding to a whole new level. Even though I otherwise enjoyed the game, I forced myself to finish it. The biggest problem that I have with the game is that you have to retread the same maps over and over again. These may seem like small things, but they’re actually a pretty big deal. A captain’s breastplate will go to a soldier while a staff will go to a mage. So you don’t have to worry about picking up the wrong gear. In co-op, loot automatically goes to the correct player. Some of the bosses only took me a couple of minutes to beat which is disappointing since they at least look pretty badass. The difficulty does not seem to scale all that well based on your experience points or gear. I have it on the max difficulty setting and have only died once the entire game – and my partner revived me.
