Swedish developer, Stunlock Studios, announced today that a new game mode, ‘Battlegrounds’, is now available in Battlerite. Battlegrounds is an objective-based 3v3 mode where players can easily jump in for quick bursts of fun. The matches are split into two parts: starting with the event phase where players fight to secure or complete objectives, and then leading to an ‘assault/defend’ phase where one team attacks and the other team defends. Victory is won by destroying the enemy’s Guardian.
Battlegrounds gameplay trailer:
Battlegrounds introduces a number of new mechanics as well as some refined mechanics previously used in brawls such as Respawn, Capture Points, NPC’s and Balloons, Power Shards, a Minimap function, an in-game level system, Brush and Guardians. The new patch also includes a shiny new UI and a new “Battlerites” system which let players customize and choose Battlerites before the match and enter the fray with all Battlerites active from the start of the match.
Battlerite is available on Steam Early Access for 19.99€/$19.99/£14.99. For more information, you can check the official website, Twitter, and Facebook.
