Posted by Michael Bitton on Apr 07, 2010 | 0 comments in our forums
True Games Interactive and Petroglyph have revealed details on the PvP and co-op offerings available in their upcoming Greek mythology themed MMO, Mytheon.
A new video featuring the game's PvP gameplay is also available, you can view it below:
In Mytheon, players will be able to compete in 4v4 multiplayer scenarios, as well as team-based cooperative scenarios. Players interested in getting in some PvP action will have to visit Battlemaster Avitus in Argos in order to initiate an automatic matchmaking queue that will match them with other players who are also waiting. PvP matches will automatically be ranked and players will also earn experience during PvP.
Arena PvP will allow for 1v1 or 2v2 gameplay, and will feature the following maps:
Ring of Destiny (1vs1) - The Ring of Destiny is a gladiatorial arena once used for sport by the god Hades and his companions. Long since abandoned, the arena is now used by Stonecasters to test their abilities against each other.
Isle of War - For centuries, Spartans would come to this secret isle to duel warriors and mythological creatures of great power to prove their might. With Sparta under siege, the isle is now used by mighty Stonecasters who continue this ancient competition.
Olympus - High above the clouds sits this arena created purely for the amusement of Zeus. With the gods distracted, brave Stonecasters travel to this arena to prove their strength and prowess.
PvP scenarios will also be offered in Mytheon, and they will allow for players to battle in up to 4v4 configurations. Below is a list of Mytheon's initial scenario offerings:
The Forge - Hidden deep beneath the earth, Hephaestus' private forge houses some of the most awesome and terrible creations in all of Greece, among them a great automaton known simply as the War Machine.
Stonecasters beware!
Forest of Despair - The creature known as Lamia is so vile, so cruel, that even the darkest gods have shunned her. Cast into the Forest of Despair, Lamia waits for would-be heroes to cross her path in hopes of appeasing her insatiable hunger for mortal flesh.
Prison of Ares - Deep beneath Mount Olympus, two vicious captives are kept at bay in the Prison of Ares: the Beast of Fury and the Mistress of Torment. Only those most brave--some would say foolhardy--would dare venture into the prison to challenge these monstrous foes.
Mytheon will also feature aforementioned cooperative gameplay options in the form of team based scenarios. In these scenarios, players will enter as two teams and will have to work together to defeat a gauntlet of vicious creatures, before eventually confronting each other. The winning team will earn the right to fight unique scenario bosses that will drop some of the game's best loot.
