MOBA games are usually played in arenas, known as lanes. Enclosed areas where players try to achieve the objective. Crush Online, however, takes this game principle into an open world.
War is raging, and you will be drawn into this conflict. In any other MOBA, you would choose a hero and then team up with friends on the respective lane to try to achieve victory. Not so in Crush Online. Here, the arena is the entire game world. A large, persistent world, like those found in MMORPGs. That is where the battles take place – meaning the focus is on tactical and action-packed PvP fights!
MOBA meets PvP-MMO
From an isometric perspective, you control your hero through the landscape and fight against your enemies, strategically using the hero’s abilities. Teamplay is of course also important, as many battles can only be survived if you act together in a group. You join one of three nations that are fighting to expand their territory. You will find control points throughout the landscapes that you must capture and hold. Additionally, you have a castle with your guild that you must also defend.
The third beta of the online game has now started, bringing several changes and new features based on feedback from previous testers. René Rieck, Product Manager at GAMESinFLAMES, explains the details of the update:
“Among other things, the Castle Sieges have been made more challenging, and the Mastery Skilltree has been completely reworked so that the various classes now receive clearer functions through skills. Weapon upgrades and the balancing of various items have also been adjusted; these areas will continue to be optimized in the future. Many players have also expressed a desire for a UI upgrade. We have responded to this request; players can now see all changes in their status values in real time. In addition, we have introduced more quests, allowing users to reach the maximum level faster. Of course, alongside the new features, numerous bugs have also been fixed.”
On the official website of the MOBA-PVP-MMO Crush Online, you can still sign up for the beta and, with a bit of luck, jump in directly.
