New Playable Character Merlin Joins Ravenswatch in January Update

The creators of the cooperative game Ravenswatch from the studio Passtech Games have announced a new playable character set to arrive next month. This time, the legendary sorcerer Merlin will join the roster of heroes.

To recap, Ravenswatch tells the story of a team of characters from various fairy tales and legends who unite their efforts to combat the creatures born of nightmares in order to save the dream world. Unlike previous DLC heroes (Romeo and Juliet), Merlin will be a paid addition, costing $7.99 across all platforms.

In battle, Merlin earns power runes—a unique resource that enhances his spells and allows him to create devastating combos. The wizard boasts nine active abilities, categorized into three different groups.

Ravenswatch is available on PC (Steam), PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch, with Russian text localization and support for cross-platform co-op play.
