Destruction AllStars
New gameplay for Destruction AllStars is here with some new crashes and information on the multiplayer modes Destruction AllStars will host
The wait may be continuing for Destruction AllStars, but thankfully that does not mean we will not have more to see for the game before it hits the PS5 in February. Some might think this is not a huge deal given what has been seen for the game and how little attention it has had so far, but there have been many titles out there like this that became huge titles later on. I am sure that is what Lucid Games wants for this one too but time will only tell. Thankfully, we can start to tell a little sooner than later with some new gameplay to look at for Destruction AllStars now. That and then the descriptions of what to expect when it comes to the gameplay modes online.
As with many multiplayer games, Destruction AllStars is going to have about the same style of modes we have come to expect over the year; even if this one is all about car combat. There is a normal Deathmatch, Capture The Flag, Battle Royale, and “Kill Confirmed” of sorts but with names that fit the genre a bit closer. This is more of a destruction derby looking game so it makes sense. Although, the gameplay here does make it seem like we can abandon our vehicle to do direct driver assault which paints Destruction AllStars in a vastly different light than I once assumed. You can see all of that in motion below and read about the upcoming modes. Not that they really seem like they will deviate from what the ones I listed will force us to do.
Destruction AllStars — Gameplay
Following last week’s news, we wanted to share more with you about the game itself, so let’s talk about what you can expect when you download your copy from PlayStation Plus in February next year with a breakdown of the game modes you can play solo, in a team with AI, or friends and rivals in online multiplayer.
- Mayhem — Mayhem plays like a classic deathmatch. Playable in solo and teams, deal damage and wreck as many opponents as you can in the time limit. The player with the highest score wins. It sounds familiar, but can you control the chaos by mastering the balance between vehicle and character action.
- Carnado —Take what you learn in Mayhem and put it all on the line in Carnado. Playable in both solo and teams, it’s focused around risk and reward. Earn Gears (AllStars’ collectible in-game items) for damaging or wrecking competitors, which are automatically stored in your vehicle. Sacrifice your vehicle by driving into the Carnado to score points. Back on-foot, get a new vehicle or steal one from your opponents for a quick points boost. The more you wreck, the more Gears you earn.
- Stockpile — Stockpile is our take on capture and control. In this team-based mode, wrecking or knocking out opponents will cause Gears to drop to the floor. Go on foot to collect the Gears and run through a gauntlet of vehicles to one of the three banks around the map. Stand on a bank to deposit Gears, and claim it for your team. This is a battle for bank ownership; the team with the most banks at the end of the game wins.
- Gridfall — 16 AllStars enter the arena, but only one will emerge victorious. In Gridfall, it’s about using all your skills to stay in the game as the arena falls away from beneath your wheels. Wreck your opponents off the edge of the map or find temporary safety in the platforms above. As players get wrecked or knocked out, they’ll trade a respawn to get back in the game. If you run out of respawns, you’re eliminated! The winner is the last AllStar standing.
- Training — Visit the Training area, complete the tutorial and practice with any of our 16 AllStars.
- Challenge Series — Play Genesis’ “One Small Step” challenge Series and unlock exclusive Character and Player Cosmetics through a curated series of challenging events against the AI.
- Rewards — Access an expanding wardrobe of cosmetics for AllStars and your player profile. Unlock items when playing the Challenge Series and level up in Multiplayer to earn AllStar Coins that you’re free to spend on the items you want.
The team will be closely monitoring community discussion and engaging with players to integrate player feedback through regular updates. We’ll also expand Destruction AllStars through future content drops, including Seasons, events, and updates throughout 2021, including new game modes. Expect:
- New AllStars
- New Challenge Series
- New Features
