There are games – which don’t grab the headlines of the specialist media – that come in and embrace the saint as soon as they set foot on Steam because, for some reason, They managed to connect with users, causing them a infatuation unbearable that leaves them no choice but to buy it. And that seems to be happening with the latest phenomenon that officially launched on December 1: Predecessor.
Then you gotta keep the hype going
It is true that we have many games in our memory that have followed the same path and when they started playing, everyone who trusted him decided to go to the same place from which they had come and to give up all they had spent. In Predecessorat least, this amount is not too high because it is a free2play although if we want to get some pack With items selected, there are fairly limited alternatives.
And so much so that Predecessor It hit Steam, cracking the top 10 within hours one of the most sold with its complete version, precisely in seventh position and very close (in 12th and 13th) to its variants: on the one hand the pack more game Rare DLC and on the other hand the Rare bundle which includes them both out of the blue. And of course, who’s not going to bite to get different heroes, in-game currencies and items and benefits when we can get everything for just 9.99 dollars?
So if you don’t know what it is Predecessorwe are going to give you some brief brushstrokes in case you miss one of the names that, surely, will give more to talk about in the month of December and which, for the moment, is in a comfortable phase of Early Access which basically means we have to forgive any bugs it might have before the patch arrives that marks its final release.
What is a predecessor?
The key to this game is that It mixes two genres that have an endless source of alternatives in online competition. On the one hand, it’s a MOBA, just like the League of Legends oh DOTA 2where we take a character with very specific qualities and jump into the battle from scratch, gain experience and configure their skill tree, and on the other hand, the intensity of the FPS they have, for example , in Destiny 2 one one of its most recognized representatives.
It is true that the combination can give very good results and in the case of this game This is the main asset she has decided to play in the face of increasingly fierce competition. in some video games designed as services that try to survive active for decades, only changing the season and always adding new content to keep the community alive.
It is obvious that on paper Predecessor Looks very goodso much so that the reviews on Steam are all “very positive”, but everything will depend on what will happen in these first weeks of lifeif it manages to connect and engage a large enough community to ensure its viability for the future.
