So who needs to climb a tower by enjoying musical chairs? That’s not the express inspiration behind the Arkheron, a multiplayer PvP tower climber from Bonfire Studios, however it’s a core a part of the sport’s mechanics. Readers will keep in mind that is Rob Pardo’s upcoming recreation, and it was introduced again in January as a recreation that couldn’t be outlined and certainly constituted “one thing solely new.”
Right here’s what we all know thus far: Gamers are divided into 15 groups of three, and after assembling an arsenal of weaponry and skills looted from treasure chests, enemies, and different gamers, the entire groups are tasked with discovering a beacon to ascend to the subsequent ground.
