What is Paladins and what makes the hero shooter special?

Paladins is the first free hero shooter for PS4 and Xbox One
Paladins will be the first free, team-based hero shooter for PS4 and Xbox One. The “F2P concept” has been a rarity on consoles so far. Everything you need to play in Paladins can be unlocked with Gold.
You earn Gold by playing the game. This applies to heroes and strategic items – the cards. Special cosmetic items are usually only obtainable through crystals, Paladins’ real currency. However, you can also earn them: Paladins crystals for free: How to earn them without spending money.
Paladins offers strong MOBA elements: Customize heroes with cards
Paladins offers an extremely sophisticated MOBA system for a casual shooter. Each character comes with an individual set of cards. The card deck allows you to customize the abilities of your champions. It’s up to you whether to design your champion more offensively or defensively.
With your champion deck, you can decide whether your support becomes a healer or damage support. You can turn your damage dealer into a flanker. Do you want to be the rock in the storm with your tank or shine with strong attacks? That’s up to you.
