Unfortunately this game is still way off, and I'm pretty sure it will be at next years E3 again. The Human Head Studios guys got a fun little game going on here. Also you'll have two buttons for combat, one attack button and one defend button. The type of attack is based on what the player is doing. If you're standing still for example, your axe slash will be less powerful than when you come running towards an enemy.
Combo attacks are also possible.
There isn't a lot of interactive stuff in the game, mainly attacking and some puzzle work, it is possible to pick up torches from the caves and use them to set guys on fire. After a while the torch will extinguish after a few attacks, you can set it on fire again by walking up to another torch or going to someone you just set on fire which is pretty funny. The last final prop I have to give is that Rune will actually have multiplayer options out of the box, unlike Max Payne and FAKK2. For people who like vikings and melee combat, this is your game. The World is Not Enough, but it has potential.
