New roguelike hero shooter in development from 2K and 31st Union
Today, 2K and 31st Union unveiled Project ETHOS, a new free-to-play, 3rd-person roguelike hero shooter and an exciting evolution on the genre.
What is Project ETHOS?
● A ROGUELIKE HERO SHOOTER – Shape your playstyle every match through Evolutions, powerful, semi-randomised, upgrades unique to each hero. Evolve a sniper into a close-range skirmisher, or a support role into a powerful lone wolf. Build your hero in real-time to suit your personal playstyle.
● SIGNATURE EXTRACTION MODE – Drop into Trials, an ongoing, persistent fight to collect cores, extract, and unlock powerful Augments which fuel your future Trials runs.
● BUILD YOUR PERFECT RUN, OR DIE TRYING – Discover new levels of mastery across every run as you take on the competition with new abilities, stakes, and challenges that change every match. With the clock ticking, do you safely extract with your hard-earned cores, or go big, risk it all, and see if you and your team can earn top ranking. The choice is yours.
To bring players along on the development journey like never before, a special community playtest is kicking off now. It’s available from Oct. 17-20 in the United States, Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Germany, Spain and Italy. Eligible players will be able to play two modes:
● Our signature mode, Trials, is an ongoing, persistent fight to collect cores, extract, and unlock powerful Augments which fuel your future Trials runs.
● Gauntlet is the competitive head-to-head tournament mode for Project ETHOS. Play against other teams in your bracket, upgrade your hero after each match and fight to be the last one standing.
