Witchfire, an upcoming magic-themed shooter, just got a new gameplay trailer, and in it, we learn about how the weapons actually work. The video, narrated by Creative Director Adrian Chmielarz, explains how magic affects the guns and weapons you wield in Witchfire.

Though the trailer only goes over one of the guns in detail, it provides a sufficient enough explanation and gives us a rough idea of how all the weapons work in-game.

Powered by witch magic, weapons in Witchfire grant access to powers that mortals cannot wield. Hunger, which is a revolver-type handgun, feeds off Critical Hits (such as headshots), and makes your next round of bullets deal more damage based on how many Critical Hits you landed before the reload.

Upon attuning with the gun further, this damage increase now scales with the number of Critical Hits you landed with the previous round instead of just a flat increase. This further incentivizes the player to land Critical Hits for maximum damage output. Weapons also have a third attunement, and for Hunger, landing Critical Hits on all shots will grant a freezing effect on your next reload. 

The game has no release date just yet, but you can wishlist Witchfire now via Epic Games (link here).
