Exteel E3 2005 Preshow Report
Giant robots fight online in this PC action game from NCsoft.
At E3 2005, NCsoft will be debuting a brand-new game called Exteel. Exteel is an online action game featuring huge, stylish battles between giant robots that you can customize yourself. The game takes place inside a war-torn world where the few remaining survivors of a previously lost war battle it out with one another for survival. In this case, instead of the usual big guns or swords, these inhabitants are robots, and they battle it out in big, honking robot battles.
A large part of the game will be its character customization aspect. As there are no organic beings, you will focus on creating and customizing your robot to your heart's content. The look of the robots we've seen thus far is reminiscent of the sorts of giant robots you'd find in a Gundam movie. Apart from customizing their appearance, you will be able to customize unique combinations of special abilities and create your own weaponry.
The action of the game promises to be modeled after the sorts of crazy, high-flying fare you'd see in a typical Hong Kong action flick. Therefore, the robots will be designed to be agile and quick, rather than the sorts of clunky mechs you might find in other robot action games. You'll be able to engage in individual deathmatches, team up with up to seven other players for mission-based combat, or get into large-scale platoon warfare for up to 64 players in all.
What exactly NCsoft will show off Exteel at E3 remains to be seen, as a US release for the game has not been confirmed. The game is currently confirmed for release in Asia and will be exclusively developed for the PC. We will bring you more on Exteel as it becomes available.
