Counter-Strike’s creator will reveal MMO shooter PLAN Eight subsequent week

The dramatically named Korean developer Pearl Abyss has three new games whirring away on their growth PCs. The builders of Black Desert Online are engaged on three new MMOs: one shooter from the creator of Counter-Strike, one child-friendly jaunt, and one fantasy game. The three games have a correct reveal deliberate for on November 14, throughout Pearl Abyss Connect at G-STAR 2019. For now, we all know they’re referred to as PLAN 8, Crimson Desert, and DokeV, alongside a handful of different particulars.

Ex-colleague of mine Minh Le (we have been each at Facepunch) is heading up PLAN 8. It’s enjoying to his strengths as one of many creators of Counter-Strike, being an MMO shooter. Players will zip into exosuits (are there things like innersuits?) and virtually definitely shoot at one another.

DokeV is an informal “collectable MMORPG” for all ages. “Collectable” appears to counsel one thing Pokemonish, although on this you accumulate desires. The artwork is as cute as my cat’s butt wiggle when she does the bathroom, however that’s all I do know.

Crimson Desert is an open-world fantasy MMORPG. It’s a triple tribe battle for management of the Pywell continent. The naming conference suggests some type of connection to Black Desert Online, however we received’t discover out till the reveal. Previous type suggests the character creator will probably be value proudly owning on its own.

Aside from revealing their new treats, they’ll even be exhibiting off extra of Shadow Arena, their Black Desert Online battle royale spin-off. The closed beta has a sign-up page simply ready for you, and can run from Nov 21 to Nov 24.

The reveal of all these will probably be streamed here on Nov 14 13.00 KST, which is 4am within the UK. I will probably be in mattress.
