You might remember that Epic Games started revealing tidbits for a new title called Paragon last month. Today, the creators of the Unreal Engine finally showcased the game with some beautiful screenshots and art; we also got some gameplay details and a stunning in-game video footage.
Paragon puts you in the fight with explosive action, direct third-person control, and deep strategic choice.
HEROES UNTETHERED
Skill matters - where you aim, when you attack, and how you move. You'll be in direct control of the action like you’ve never experienced in a MOBA.
UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL
Immerse yourself with a third-person perspective that gets you closer to the action and puts you into the fight. Feel the rush of every gank, every kill, and every victory.
CHOOSE YOUR HERO
The game features a diverse and continually growing selection of Heroes, each with unique abilities designed to complement your allies and dominate your opponents.
THIS IS A MOBA
5v5. Three lanes. Jungles. Minions. Towers. Cores. Experience the classic elements of a MOBA from a whole new perspective
INTRODUCING AGORA
Fight for control of the stunning, fully realized world of Agora, brought to life with unparalleled fidelity by Epic’s Unreal Engine 4.
YOUR WORLD IS NO LONGER FLATDive into the depths of the jungle to flank your enemy, or scale the heights to strike from above. Real elevation on an open map means you’ll have to rethink the way you approach the fight.
LIMITLESS DEPTH. ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.
Earn cards by playing. Build and upgrade decks. Create dominant strategies. Different combinations dramatically change gameplay and unlock deep strategic choice.
