EB: Chainsaw Games has officially revealed Aftercharge for PC and Consoles, which is a unique 3v3 FPS experience. In Aftercharge you either play as invisible robots, or as invincible class-based defenders in an objective-based battle. As the robots your goal is to take out the extractor machines on each map, while the defender’s goal is to thwart the invisible bots. The bots are invisible and also have the ability to heal each other, while the defenders have weapons and different classes that need to be used together to ensure victory.
Laurent Mercure of Chainsawesome Games is interviewed by Bammsters about the game Aftercharge, and talks about how easy cross-platform multiplayer is (and isn't) and how it's why they are not releasing on Playstation.
Ok not having your game on Ps4 because cross play, something many devs are learning is a very big pain trying to balance all the platforms, its such a fail fortnite on switch isn't going to be cross play with Ps4 and Xbone anymore. So don't release on PS4 and lose possible 90 million sales.....
Aftercharge is the latest game produced by Chainsawesome Games. We previously enjoyed and reviewed one of their previous titles, Knight Squad. Aftercharge is a cross-platform multiplayer game that has two teams of three players either defending or attacking energy generators scattered across the map. Currently there are only a handful of maps, but hopefully more will release in time, along with the upcoming competitive mode.
Ah....a review site with moral warnings....be careful this game has "Robotic violence"
XBA says: A unique game with a ton of potential, but simply lacking players.
