The Mage’s second awakening utilizes speed, magical Chasers and a spear to fight opponents at close range. A new stage is also coming.

Nexon has announced the next DLC character for the 2.5D fighter DNF Duel – Battle Mage. Launching on December 18th with Meister’s Laboratory, a new stage, she’s the third Season Pass character after Spectre and Brawler. Check out some of her abilities below.

As the second Awakening of the Mage class, the Battle Mage is all about melee combat and magic. She utilizes spheres called Chasers infused with elemental energy and moves very quickly when striking with her spear. Some Special Attacks can even hold an opponent in place as she follows up.

Stay tuned for more details and gameplay of the Battle Mage before her release in the coming weeks. DNF Duel is available for PS4, PS5, PC and Nintendo Switch. Check out our review of the base game here (though it’s since received some major balance changes). Two more DLC characters have yet to be revealed, but they’ll arrive sometime in 2024.
