Neverwinter's Control Wizard class dictates battle strategies

a release date is yet to be announced

Neverwinter's Control Wizard class can dictate battle strategies with their spells, such as freezing enemies in their place so a Trickster Rogue can dispatch them, as shown in the latest gameplay trailer above.

Control Wizards have a fourth Encounter power for their Spell Mastery, where players are awarded spell bonus effects for mastering a spell. For example mastering Slow Time, which stuns and slows down enemies, gives team members a speed and attack boost.

The free-to-play game is based in the Dungeons & Dragons: Forgotten Realms universe and will release for Windows PC later this year. A date is yet to be announced. Players can register for Neverwinter here.
