Even in sci-fi realms, it’s near impossible for video game designers to divorce themselves from fantasy tropes. That’s why it’s surprising, but not really, for traditional fantasy classes like the Knight to be making leaps to games like Skyforge. Of course, the Knight isn’t quite like your renaissance faire hero of old. It uses some high-tech gadgetry along with its suit of armor, shield, and spear, and seems to have a scary fire-falcon as a pet.
Skyforge is spotlighting the Knight this week in its own trailer, which takes players through the class’ various skills and abilities. If we can sell you on the trailer, how about some lore to go with it? There’s a new piece about the Tau Experimental Station that’s dying for some hotshot to dissect it for his or her Ph.D. thesis.
The Knight is waiting for you after the jump. Do you dare approach it?
