Another One Enters The MOBA Thunderdome?
0
So, I just read about a new game called Project Zeta that's trying to tackle the notoriously tough live-service market, described as a 4v4 multi-team tactical arena battle – basically a MOBA-hero shooter-BR hybrid. What's hilarious is the developers themselves openly admit that games like theirs "failed a lot" and the "track record isn't good" in this space. It takes some serious guts, or maybe a dash of pure madness, to jump into a genre that's practically a graveyard for failed titles while simultaneously acknowledging it! Their strategy? Build a community of "evangelists" before launch, which is definitely one way to go, though it sounds like trying to sell ice to an Eskimo who already has a freezer full of it. I mean, good luck to them, but my wallet and free time are already locked into Dota 2 and Valorant, so they've got their work cut out for them convincing us Pakistanis!
