Good afternoon Attackers! Kirk here with your Daily XP for Monday March 17th. Lot of stuff
going on this week at Attack Gaming. Today Mark and I will be heading up to LA to visit
the offices at Loot Crate, make some videos, and Wednesday I'm heading up to San Francisco
for GDC. I'm telling you this because I want you all to check us out on our social media
channels so you can get caught up with what we're doing, while we're doing it, all the
links are in the description below. On to the MMO news for today, we have ability leaks
in Heroes of the Storm, a revival of the dungeon crawler Gauntlet, and the subscription drop
in Perpetuum. Your daily XP starts now! Even with the small amount of players playing
Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard's upcoming free to play MOBA, those guys are still finding
the juicy tid-bits that we all love to find. Peaking through hidden folders, with unused
assets and inactive code is more like a job for some, and I for one am glad they treat
it that way. Last month a slew of heroes were uncovered as potentially playable, and over
the weekend some 50 new abilities were discovered for 15 different heroes. Unfortunately at
this point it's just ability names, and those can change, but Keg Smash, Drunken Master,
Pool of Destruction, Juggle Cups and Egg Bomb, all sound pretty cool to me. You can check
out the ability names via the link below. Warner Brothers Entertainment and Arrowhead
Studios today announced the revival of the dungeon crawling, arcade classic, Gauntlet.
Gauntlet was originally developed by Atari Games for its release in 1985, and was one
of the first multiplayer games of its time. The title will be re-worked, obviously, and
introduced to a whole new generation later this summer on Steam. So what will Gauntlet
be about? Well, for now we only have an announcement trailer to go off of, but players will select
between four traditional characters: Wizard, Warrior, Elf and Valkyrie, and partake in
procedurally generated dungeons with the innovation of today's dungeons crawlers while remaining
true to its arcade foundations. After a successful Greenlight campaign by
Gamma Frontier and Perpetuum, the game will undergo a payment model change upon Steam
launch. The subscription model will be dropped in favor of a single purchase at $28.99. Those
who have paid for at last 3 months in the past will get the game for free. For those
of you who don't know Perpetuum, Perpetuum is a sci-fi MMORPG set in a far-away planet
that's inhabited by aliens. Perpetuum features, a persistant universe, a formable planet serface,
dynamically changing resources, time-based character development, real-time asynchronous
combat and more. Perpetuum can be played at perpetuum-online.com. Perpetuum.
