Arena of Fate Trailer: Crytek Joins the MOBA Movement

Crytek's Arena of Fate depicts 5 vs. 5 MOBA-style battles starring the likes of Baron Munchhausen, Jack the Ripper and Frankenstein's monster. Arena of Fate is being done by Crytek's Black Sea studio, which joined the company after Crytek bought out Black Sea Studios.

Vesselin Handjiev, managing director of Crytek Black Sea and game director of Arena of Fate, said, “imagine Joan of Arc and Robin Hood cooperating to hunt down Little Red Riding Hood – Wouldn’t that be terrific? But besides the game's iconic heroes, which everyone in the team really loves, we are also challenging ourselves to carefully craft a streamlined player experience that allows for both greater accessibility, and rich, deep, action-packed gameplay.”

Arena of Fate will be on display at E3 at Crytek's booth. Would-be players can sign up for a chance to try its Early Access beta at Arena of Fate's official website. The game is slated for a release later this summer for PC and consoles.
