God of War: Ascension will feature a “ground-breaking multiplayer” component, the game’s director Todd Pappy has confirmed on the US PS Blog, a first for the venerable series.
“That’s right. God of War: Ascension will feature a ground-breaking new online multiplayer mode,” Pappy said.
“We wouldn’t do multiplayer in God of War unless we knew we could do it right. That’s why I’m extremely excited to finally be able to talk publicly about it and share all the gory details with you live. I even have some exclusive gameplay footage to share with you, so be sure to tune in to see it all live.”
The multiplayer will feature team-based gameplay with action setpieces found in God of War games. Players will have to choose which of the four gods they’ll be aligned with: Zeus, Poseidon, Hades or Ares.
The livestream goes live in 15 minutes.
Thanks, Benzo!
i really wanted to be my usual self, oh when will developers learn that not every game needs MP, there just whoring out the franchise to get more sales.
but i have to admit god daym the MP looks good!
I think God of War needed some type of MP to add to its great story component, giving it more value…This looks awesome.
