As promised, Lynked: Banner of the Spark is formally launched and reside within the wild as of at present because it departs early entry for good. The Dreamhaven-published, FuzzyBot-developed multiplayer roguelite (really, the devs use “rogue-life” for all its lifeskills) opens its doorways with its 1.0 replace, together with 5 chapters, 40 new missions, and a brand new biome referred to as VoidSpyre. Right here’s the pitch:
“Lynked is a colourful motion RPG through which gamers workforce up with one another and with their robotic allies to face down the Combot menace. After testing their mettle towards waves of menacing enemies in solo or co-op missions, gamers return residence to construct a shiny new world alongside their band of rescued robots, crafting a thriving city with the sources they’ve collected – and rising their energy for the subsequent journey.”
To this point, MOP’s Colin and MOP’s Sam have each performed the sport and returned to us with detailed impressions: Sam was taken with its surprisingly high-quality fight and basebuilding again in early entry, whereas earlier this week Colin took a dip into the launch model, saying that despite not being an MMORPG, it “scratches that exploration, crafting, and character development itch that so few video games exterior the MMORPG style do.” Collectively, they examined out the multiplayer too (and it was easy like butter).
Lynked is offered on PS5, Xbox X|S, and Steam for nearly 25 buckaroos.
