How many RPGs have followed the Diablo formula? We don't have enough fingers to count. The latest to do so is Dawn of Magic, a hack 'n' slash role-playing game created by Russian developer SkyFallen which is due to release on these shores on April 27. But while it might echo Blizzard's creation, Dawn of Magic game designer Alexander Chulkov is bold enough to call it "first among equals".
Chulkov speaks further about the action-RPG in an internal interview conducted by Koch Media, which is publishing Dawn of Magic on these shores through its label Deep Silver.
