RPG elements are now indispensable in games. Even in many shooters, players level up. And Microsoft has now announced a leveling system for Solitaire – no, this is not a joke.
Level-Up in Solitaire!
What exactly has Microsoft announced? While playing the well-known card game Solitaire, you will soon earn experience points. With these points, you will level up and obtain rewards.
This is a joke, right? No, Microsoft is serious. However, the system is actually designed to create more gameplay incentives.
How did Microsoft announce this? A funny trailer briefly introduces the new feature. In the trailer, there is a narrator showcasing the leveling system in Solitaire. It then takes a bit of a turn.
A casual feature for casual players
What is the benefit of leveling in Solitaire? We are talking about rewards that can be unlocked by leveling up. However, Microsoft has not yet revealed exactly what those rewards are. It will be possible to level up in every game mode of the card game.
Why do we need such a system in Solitaire? Microsoft explains that the leveling system is not about a deep new feature but rather something that is supposed to create more incentives for casual players and also to convey a better feeling of achievement in the game. Solitaire is thus not suddenly going to become an RPG or a collectible card game like Hearthstone.
When will the feature be implemented? Microsoft has not revealed that yet. It is only mentioned as “Coming soon.”
