Warhammer: Chaosbane Reviews
Warhammer: Chaosbane feels like a classic Diablo clone. Atmosphere and story is done perfectly, unfortunately the dueling system is not interesting enough to attract you for longer period of time. Actually, the game doesn't even work for a long time, because it crashes. Quite often.

Warhammer: Chaosbane delivers an alright, but very broken game on Xbox One X.
Only you can save the newly-crowned Emperor's life in this Diablo-like action RPG that stays true to the Warhammer license.
A good Diablo like game that doesn't does anything particularly new but still is fun specially when playing on coop.

Warhammer Chaosbane is a rather pretty, but ultimately shallow Diablo wannabe. By adhering too closely to its inspiration is fails to bring anything new to the table, and end up looking like a poor imitation in somewhat shinier armour and fails to deliver anything with any impact. More whiffle bat than Warhammer.
In the end, I can't help but feel Warhammer: Chaosbane suffers from being a budget action RPG, taking shortcuts to save cost, which has caused the game to succumb to the issue of being rather unoriginal, uninspiring and repetitive.
Warhammer Chaosbane packs a lot of action in this action-rpg game, but there's not enough original content to give the game any long term replayability.
...doesn't really bring anything new to the table. It's enjoyable enough, but is mostly uninspired.
Warhammer: Chaosbane isn't noteworthy. If you're a fan of the franchise, it might meet your need for Diablo-style beat-'em-up action. If you're not, there's little to recommend it over the horde of other available games, especially since this is selling at full price. Like Diablo III, perhaps Chaosbane can eventually update enough to fix its mistakes, but until then, it's a game for Warhammer faithfuls only.
Warhammer fans can be in luck to be able to sink their teeth into a game that is very respectful of the Games Workshop franchise, which knows how to take advantage of the genre's virtues and offers a varied and promising endgame.

Warhammer: Chaosbane is a decent ARPG that doesn't do anything new or exciting. Still, it might appeal to Warhammer fans and newcomers to the ARPG genre.
Warhammer: Chaosbane takes all the right cues from the giants of the action RPG genre while at the same time implementing a few neat tricks of its own.
Warhammer: Chaosbane has a solid gameplay core, but that's not enough to become an interesting game.

Warhammer: Chaosbane is a cool ARPG that would have been better if it wasn't a current gen game but unfortunately, we're not in 2005 anymore.
Essentially this really is a Diablo 3 clone with the Warhammer licence slathered all over it, unfortunately it doesn’t have the polish or the depth of Diablo 3
Warhammer: Chaosbane is an inferior clone of a much better game
If you’re absolutely over Diablo 3 but still hankering for some fantasy action, then Chaosbane will more than happily scratch that itch. Even as I started to tire of certain aspects, I found it hard to put down. Indeed, my coffee went cold several times, which is as good an endorsement as I can probably give!
Good but not exceptional, Warhammer: Chaosbane is a solid and confident slice of medieval melee action. As Gothic as it is repetitive in the endgame phase, it's still an enjoyable romp in the same vein as many an action RPG from yesteryear.
Warhammer: Chaosbane joins the large family of Warhammer properties in a small stable of action-RPGs. Though somewhat derivative of the genre, it offers enough new blood and style to be a valuable entry for those looking for dungeons to crawl and loot to collect.
Eko Software attempts to put a fresh spin on the ARPG genre in the Old World, but ultimately falls short in virtually all aspects. Truly a shame, since the Warhammer IP is replete with a ton of potential for a proper ARPG title
