Hood: Outlaws and Legends – Release
Genre: Action-Adventure | Developer: Sumo Digital | Platform: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S | Release Date: May 10, 2021 | Payment Model: Buy2Play
What kind of game is this? Hood: Outlaws and Legends is a PvEvP game. Two teams of 4 players each try to loot a treasure while eliminating NPCs as well as the opposing player group.
A round works as follows:
- You need to steal a key to a treasure chest. But this key is held by a Sheriff who is very strong and can take you out with one blow.
- Once you have the key, you must break into the fortress and find the treasure chest. However, it is located in a different place in each match.
- Lastly, you must escape from the fortress without losing the treasure to the Sheriff and his henchmen or the opposing player group.
The focus of each round is the right tactic and stealth since those who are not detected find it significantly easier. Teams can communicate in voice chat or use signs and markers on the map.
Hood: Outlaws and Legends offers 4 classes at launch. Gameplay-wise, it reminds of a mix between For Honor and Assassin’s Creed. Our colleagues from GamePro also reached this conclusion when presenting the game (via GamePro).
