We are a mere 2 weeks away from the launch of Disintegration! This new shooter from V1 Interactive, led by Marcus Lehto of Halo fame, looks to combine interesting gameplay with an engrossing story. While its this aspect of the game that has me most excited, a full multiplayer suite is coming along for the ride. Looking to leverage the games unique squad mechanics across 3 different modes, multiplayer looks like, and was, a ton of fun! Three game modes will be available at launch, Zone Control, Collector, and Retrieval. To outline these modes, a new trailer has been released that you can watch above to get all the details!
If you aren’t interested in watching the trailer, here is a brief rundown for each mode.
Zone Control: 5 teams compete to capture control points scattered across a map. Control points can only be captured by ground units so Gravcycle players can strategically eliminate opponents or play as a frontline defender for the point in contention. You only gain points if the zone is completely uncontested.
Collector: 2 teams go head to head to see who can collect the most brain cans. Brain cans will spawn around the map for easy pick-up or if you like doing things the fun way, taken from fallen enemies! Deny your opponents the opportunity to score by picking up the brain cans of your fallen teammates.
Retrieval: This is your classic attack and defend gametype with an explosive twist! 2 teams are at play here with one team attacking a set of generators to retrieve a core and the other defending it. Only ground units can retrieve the cores so it is up to Gravcycle players to provide adequate support. if you drop the core you have a limited amount of time to pick it back up before it explodes! After the round ends the sides swap. The team with the most retrievals after the end of the rounds is the winner.
With the number of different crews and tactics available, Disintegration’s multiplayer mode could be a real contender in the shooter space! I am also curious to see how things have changed since the beta test. Only 2 weeks left now until the games full launch on June 16 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One!
