Epic Games has this week unveiled a new PC shooter they are currently creating called Paragon, that will be launched sometime during 2016.
Unfortunately, very few details have been unveiled about the new Paragon PC game, which seems to include a range of different characters with names such as Twinblast, Steel, Sparrow, Dekker, and Grux.
Character Teasers and Weekly Reveals
Epic Games has also released a 30-second teaser trailer for the Twinblast character which also unfortunately doesn’t shed that much light onto what you can expect. The teaser, while brief, showcases Twinblast’s dynamic combat style and hints at the game’s high-octane action sequences. Epic Games has said they will unveil a new Paragon hero once a week until December 3rd, when hopefully they will provide more details of what we can expect as far as gameplay. This strategy of weekly reveals is designed to build anticipation and keep the gaming community engaged. Each character reveal is expected to highlight unique abilities and playstyles, offering a glimpse into the diverse tactical options players will have at their disposal.
Gameplay and Mechanics Speculation
While specific gameplay details are still under wraps, speculation is rife within the gaming community. Given Epic Games’ history with titles like Unreal Tournament, it is anticipated that Paragon will feature fast-paced, competitive gameplay with a strong emphasis on strategic team play. The inclusion of characters with distinct abilities suggests that Paragon may incorporate elements of the MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) genre, similar to games like League of Legends and Dota 2. This would involve players selecting heroes with unique skill sets and working together to achieve objectives, adding layers of depth and strategy to the shooter mechanics.

Epic Games is also currently developing Fortnite and the new Unreal Tournament game, both of which will be launching on PC sometime in the future. Fortnite, in particular, has garnered significant attention for its innovative blend of building mechanics and battle royale gameplay, setting high expectations for Paragon’s potential to introduce fresh and engaging gameplay elements.
