Challenge opponents with a deadly fusion of Masters in beautifully crafted battlegrounds. Fight in a variety of PvP Game types or bring up to four friends with you into the co-op story. With a diverse selection of over 30 Masters, together with the innovative TAG System, there are hundreds of different Master combinations available, offering a new level of strategy, combos, and tactics. MXM's Closed Beta phase ran from April 6, 2017 until April 27, 2017. The game was officially released on June 21, 2017 [B][url=https://masterxmaster.gamepedia.com/TAG_System]TAG System[/url][/B] The TAG System in a core feature in Master X Master that allows players to pick two Masters before a match, and swap them in and out mid-battle to use their specific skills, and build powerful attack and defense combos - or even avoid death. Players can pick contrasting Masters to build a powerful and well-rounded duo, or specialize to combo similar abilities, and focus their effectiveness. Masters don't share a health bar, but if one of them dies both will be defeated. Swapping to other Master can help prevent the enemy from landing a final killing blow, but CC and other quick bursts make the decision of when to swap a critically important one.

There are several champions from other NCSOFT titles (such as WildStar, Blade & Soul, Aion, Guild Wars and Lineage) that are part of the game as playable characters, with more to join in the future. You can change up how you want to play each Master with customizable skills. Switch skills in and out, and then upgrade them for maximum effectiveness before a match. Each Master has their own unique set of skills that you can use to damage enemies, support your teammates, and help turn the tide of battle.

[U][url=https://masterxmaster.gamepedia.com/Stages]Stages (PvE)[/url][/U] Stages are PvE (Player versus Environment) instances and dungeons that players can run either Solo or with other players and friends. Completing stages awards materials. Each stage has different difficulty levels that players can unlock at they play. [U][url=https://masterxmaster.gamepedia.com/Arenas]Arenas (PvP)[/url][/U] Arenas are PvP (Player versus Player) battlegrounds with a more traditional MOBA gameplay. The Combat Arena a 3v3 battleground; is a great starter for PvP with quick, five minute death matches. Titan Ruins is an epic 5v5 battleground, where players push along a three lane map that'll be familiar to previous MOBA players. [U][url=https://masterxmaster.gamepedia.com/Mini_Games]Mini Games (PvP)[/url][/U] Mini Games are special PvP (Player versus Player) game modes. These fun-focused mini games challenge you to forego your combat abilities, and instead run, dodge, and jump to defeat your opponents and emerge victorious!

They just published a video showing their minigames mode. Seems to be a collection of mini games kind of like Uther Party and other warcraft 3/starcraft custom maps of that type. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-aZuJW40RI[/media]
For some reason I legit expected a game about playing as a master with a waifu exchanging blows with another combo of a waifu/master but this game sounds cool too. I'm not really a big fan of MOBAs but an MMORPG MOBA sounds like a pretty cool combo. That said I can't say an MMORPG with no actual custom characters (besides the custom skills of course) won't get bland pretty fast. Just my thoughts about seeing the same set of characters all over the world. Ragnarok online and MU pulled it off well I guess they can pull off something with this game.
There will be a playtest for Titan Ruins (the game's MOBA pvp mode) at the end of the month: [url]http://www.playmxm.com/en/news/titan-ruins-playtest-begins-november-22[/url] Anyone who subscribes to their newsletter before November 21 should get an invite.

NCSoft really fucked up this time.

[QUOTE=Banned?;52003084]Now I'm triggered and crying.[/QUOTE] It's ok. Stastesman is still dead.

Why does it have to be a fucking MOBA? This would've been better as a Third Person game instead.
[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;52317667]Why does it have to be a fucking MOBA? This would've been better as a Third Person game instead.[/QUOTE] It is an isometric third person mmo. The pvp is a moba without items though.
Ah right I see, so PvP will be the shit side then.
[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;52321424]Ah right I see, so PvP will be the shit side then.[/QUOTE] The 3v3 mode was some of the best gameplay I've experienced in a game.
