The Behemoth Game #3 Detailed in Latest Video

News
Twitter facebook googlebuzz

 

I'll be honest, after watching the gameplay footage from the San Diego Comic-Con, I wasn't so sure about Game #3.  It appeared to be geared more towards a versus style of play rather than co-op.  The game has a new trailer though, one that shows a new gameplay mode, and one that restores faith that the game will still have some sort of co-op.

The mode on display is called the Soul Mode.  In this mode you'll platform around a level and try to steal and hold the souls of your opponents.  Players can team up against the AI with up to four separate teams on a map.  The video even goes in depth with describing some of the co-op strategies of the game mode.  

Still, I can't help but feel something is missing.  Even with the promise of customizable characters, tons of levels, and an epic story mode something feels off.  Perhaps it's just me.  I'll reserve judgment until I get some hands on time with the game at PAX in a few weeks.

It would appear that they're going a different direction with this one rather than trying to one-up their previous games. They still haven't said much about it yet.

I suppose you're right. It is a different direction... but from what I've seen so far I am a little disappointed.

Well, they did show some co-op platforming in the original video, so hopefully they'll do something fun with it.

That mode doesn't look like that much fun to me. I certainly want to see more of it though. Between Castle Crashers and Alien Hominid, they've got a lot of built up good will with me.

I was hoping they would continue the trend of recreating some of the best types of games from back in the day.

Alien Homind - Contra style

Castle Crasher - Double Dragon/TMNT style

I love their games so here is hoping the new ones turns out to be really good.
