Indie studio Mardonpol, makers of Quiz Night Tonight! (2017), is dialing in on CS:GO territory with its recently released trailer which shows all of the trappings of the popular PC shooter, replete with Italy-inspired map, AWPs, and bomb planting galore. The game is slated for a 2018 with its release targeting cross-play for PSVR, Oculus Rift and HTC Vive.
Alvo first appeared on Sony’s list of 60+ upcoming games in 2017 and 2018 back in October, but we weren’t all that sure exactly what it was, or whether it was a PSVR exclusive or not. Now, Mardonpol says they’re not only making it for PSVR with Aim support, but also for Vive and Rift too.
Here’s a quick rundown of what the game is promising:
- Search and Destroy – a 5v5 round-based game mode, where one team attempts to plant the bomb and the other must defend the sites and/or defuse the bomb.
- Deathmatch – you versus everyone. Last man standing wins.
- King of the Hill – a game mode based on capturing control spots all over the map, and holding them. The team with the most amount of points at the time limit will win.
- Online bots – in the case aren’t enough users online
Since it’s likely early days for the studio, further info on the game is still sparse. You can sign up for beta access here. Check out the Steam page here.
It’s safe to say the trailer below doesn’t include actual in-game footage, but it certainly raises an eyebrow.
