The summer vacation with a two-month holiday has always been a competitive schedule for major game manufacturers every year. This summer, of course, does not mean that all major game manufacturers have already prepared for the summer file, among which there are many well-known manufacturers familiar to the majority of players, such as Tencent and Netease, etc. Tencent is even more aggressive and has prepared two heavy games. In this article, let’s take a look at the summer meals prepared by each family.
Fearless contract
Online time: July 12th.
I believe that many people have already participated in the just-concluded test of "Fearless Contract". Of course, the end of this test is not the end. Players only need to wait patiently for a few days. By July 12, "Fearless Contract" will be officially launched.
"Fearless Contract" is a 5v5 tactical FPS game that emphasizes the character’s personality. The game is set on the future earth, and all characters will be collectively called "agents". Each "agent" has its special abilities and will play its greatest role in corresponding special situations.
The task of agents in the fearless contract is to solve this huge crisis that the world is about to be destroyed by using their respective abilities. There are 11 heroes in the current version of The Fearless Contract. At the beginning, we can only play 5 of them, and other heroes need to be unlocked one after another through game play.
The core mechanism of Fearless Contract is almost the same as that of traditional CS. From buying guns to the economic system; From the next package to the offensive and defensive sides, basically what you can play in CS can be played in the fearless contract. The biggest difference with CS series lies in "heroic skills".
The map mechanism of Fearless Contract is also very similar to CSGO, both of which are "multi-point and multi-line maps". The biggest difference lies in two points: first, some maps have three package points; Second, there is no "penalty time" for the opening of each map, but both sides can run to the vicinity of the main points of the map and wait for the game to start.
As a brand-new masterpiece of fist, the game has already achieved good results overseas. After the first anniversary of the game operation, the monthly active users broke through the 14 million mark, and the peak number of viewers of related e-sports events on Twitch reached 1 million. Undoubtedly, this year Tencent is definitely betting on "Fearless Contract", and it is also a key concern for the game.
At the launch conference of the Fearless Contract, Ma Xiaotong, senior vice president of tencent games, said: "The Fearless Contract will be the most important product released in tencent games this year. Tencent and Fist Games will take the Fearless Contract as a global strategic product, and invest in it for a long time to jointly promote the development of products, e-sports and IP ecology."
Ark of destiny
Online time: July 20th.
Of course, not all players like shooting games, like high-strength PVP competition. Therefore, Tencent also prepared another big meal for other players this summer. In recent years, the MMOPRG work "Ark of Destiny", which is the hottest, will also be officially launched on July 20, and now an appointment can be made to log in to the game on July 13 in advance.
The Lost Ark, developed by SmileGate, the developer of Crossing the Firewire, is a MMORPG set in medieval Europe, which describes a peaceful fantasy world suddenly invaded by demons, and players embark on an adventure journey in order to find the ark scattered around the world.
In the game, players can freely cultivate a variety of professions, and each profession has different combat systems and skills, so that players can experience different fun. Players can not only be exposed to the growth of characters, diverse costumes, props enhancement and other content, but also experience the magnificent world outlook, moving stories and skills with a sense of shock.
Tencent also said that in order to welcome the launch of this strategic product national service, it will show considerable sincerity in localization, version development and operation. For example, we have invested a lot of energy in localization work such as text and dubbing, with more than 15 million Chinese characters in Chinese text and more than 20,000 sentences in Chinese dubbing.
When the national service is fully opened, the version will include three professions: Mo Ling, Gunsmith and Elemental Witch, and the regimental headquarters will be opened to "Argouse". At the same time, several regimental headquarters will be launched one after another this year.
Jin le fantasy
Online time: July 31st.
In addition to two end-tours, Tencent certainly hasn’t neglected mobile games. In the summer, it may launch a brand-new music mobile game "Jinle Fantasy" that many old players will be interested in.
Jin Le Fantasy is a 3D music social leisure mobile game developed by the original musicians of Jin Band and Jin Dance Group. The game was first officially unveiled at the tencent games conference last year. The game hopes to bring players a brand-new 3D playing and dressing experience through the current top engine technology.
It should be pointed out that the online time information of "Jinle Fantasy" comes from the App Store. This time is not a fixed time, and the game manufacturers will adjust it according to the actual situation. Therefore, it is still unknown whether the game can really go online in the summer, only waiting for the official official official announcement.
In addition to Tencent, other domestic manufacturers have also prepared their own new games in the summer, among which Netease, Byte and Xishanju are the three most familiar players.
Record of the Three Kingdoms’ Punishment
Online time: July 13th.
"The Three Kingdoms will be recorded" is a mobile game of the three kingdoms generals developed by the Unreal 4 engine produced by Netease. The game has a unique realistic picture style, which truly restores the background of the Three Kingdoms, including the lineup of all military commanders, and has a unique combination of fetters, different collocations and different experiences.
The game was previously tested in May. At present, it seems that the game is going well. The official has confirmed that the game will be open for public beta on July 13th.
The fighting UI, skill special effects and weapon strike sense in The Three Kingdoms will be recorded all have a strong dark style, and the military commanders’ moves are all from fist to flesh, which is extremely cool. Players can use more than 200 kinds of original skills to Build, and the smooth hitting action and grand battle scene design will bring players an immersive fighting pleasure.
The cultivation of military commanders is one of the core games of The Three Kingdoms. There are hundreds of military commanders in the game who can choose freely. Each military commander has his own original skills, and he also brings his own free pet riding, which doubles the intensity. Players can assemble hundreds of generals to form different lineups and use ingenious tactical arrangements to fight hand in hand with the military commanders.
Crystal nucleus
Online time: July 14th.
Known as the 3D version of DNF, "Crystal Nucleus" officially announced that it will be open beta on July 14th, supporting the two-terminal interworking between PC and mobile terminal.
"Crystal Nucleus" is a two-dimensional style game released in light years. As an action role-playing (ARPG) game that combines mechanical and magical styles, "Crystal Nucleus" provides a playability with a refreshing feel and deep character development on the basis of a good combination of two fantasy (sci-fi+magic) themes.
The story of "Crystal Nucleus" takes place in an overhead sky world, and the sea of clouds in the true sense has become the real environment in which players are exposed. In order to respond to the background setting of the city of the sky, Crystal Nucleus highlights the design elements of wind, clouds and flight in the overall planning and detailed layout, whether it is Rumi Village where players are new to the city or Rhine City, which focuses on displaying the world view of the game.
"Crystal Nucleus" is a game with professional skills and equipment build as the core and the fighting experience of the box-type level as the skeleton. Similar to games such as DNF, the characters in Crystal Nucleus also distinguish between performance and gameplay by occupation. A completely different vocational skill tree has defined a clear style orientation.
At the same time, in order to match the construction depth and playability of the profession, Crystal Nucleus has set up many dimensions such as role level, equipment and skill configuration in the aspect of role development, so that the same profession has a personalized look in the hands of different players.
Forbidden area of dust and white
Online time: July 20th.
Although most people think of martial arts games first when they mention Xishanju, Xishanju has been actively expanding its own game types in recent years. In this summer, Xishanju’s third-person shooter "Dust and White Forbidden Zone" will be released for public beta on July 20th.
"Dust Forbidden Zone" is a light science fiction 3D third-person shooting and role-playing game that supports both mobile and PC experiences. In the world of Dusty Forbidden Zone, there are real lies hidden, and the secret truth needs to be explored by players in the course of battle; With the experience of working together, the perfect method of breaking the game needs the tacit cooperation of analysts; There are wonders of science fiction, and analysts will explore the loss of the zero zone between buildings.
Up to now, the number of reservations on this game TapTap has reached 1.66 million, but the online time of the game is the same as the above-mentioned "Jinle Fantasy", which is obtained through the reservation information of the App Store, rather than the official announcement. Players don’t have to expect too much.
