Are there plans for more melee-centric playstyles?

Looking through the trailers and screenshots and I'm loving the look of this, but I'm curious if there are plans for melee weapon oriented builds for those of us who like to hack and slash up close?

I'm not gonna cite this, but I'm pretty sure that I saw that they plan on adding melee weapons if they can in the future.

There is already a somewhat melee-centric build in the game, utilizing one of the shotguns, Psychopomp, I believe, that resets your melee cooldown. Combining that with most of the spells being fairly close range. You could easily, with the right setup, of course, run a melee-centric build.

Flame Breath Tier 3 will refresh your charged melee attack if it kills something, but I wouldn't depend on it as the damage is middling. Personally, I prefer fireballs; they become a melee attack of their own up close.
If you want to play melee right now, you should recruit the ghost of Goliath. His passive buffs also increase regular melee damage, meaning you can legitimately kill a few injured enemies by punching them to death.

More melee options will be great. I really like shooting but melee seems more viable sometimes.
