Details about Valve’s next game "Deadlock”
Valve's next title, Deadlock, is reportedly a third-person shooter combined with hero and ability-based elements. In a recent string of tweets, Counter Strike and Valve game-based content creator Gabe Follower shared details on Deadlock.
Deadlock was previously known as Neon Prime, Citadel. The competitive third-person hero-based shooter will feature 6v6 game modes. The game modes will be playable on huge maps with 4 lanes. Players will be allowed to use abilities and items during their matches.
Basically, the game borrows mechanics from games such as Overwatch, Valorant, Smite, and Dota 2. Aside from that, the game's fast-travel mechanics reportedly take heavy inspiration from the ones seen in Bioshock Infinite.
The game will mainly feature tower defence mechanisms with a combination of steampunk and fantasy elements. Players can expect to be graced with magicians, weird creatures, and robots based on the steampunk and fantasy elements.
Initially, Valve had plans to base the basic gameplay elements on sci-fi elements seen in Half-life 2 and Portal. But the developers advised against it, which led them to choose a mixture of fantasy and steampunk.
However, there have been no details on what abilities or heroes will be available for players, but the heroes will be heavily influenced by Valve's Dota universe. It'll be interesting to see how Valve pulls off a third-person ability shooter based on their most popular title, Dota 2.
