Head Xbox Phil Spencer conducted an interview with the authors of the cooperative “bagel” 33 Immortalswhere users in the role of rebellious divine followers fight for the right to eternal life.
A similar number of players for multiplayer was chosen because the authors were inspired by “Divine Comedy”, where each part just consisted of 33 chapters. The developers joked that at first they did not even have enough people in the studio to collect a full set of participants in the co-op.
At the same time, all players will not necessarily be in the same place during the passage – in the demo, the fighters were “scattered” around the map, so they faced different tasks.
As part of the battles, the characters are attacked by many enemies, so they just need the forces of the allies (which can also save wounded comrades). The heroes have their own characteristics that they use in battle – someone tries to attack from afar with a bow, and someone rushes into battle with swords.
In the video itself, by the way, you can evaluate the interface of the project, where there are also role-playing elements with pumping.
Spencer himself was pleased with the demo – both the gameplay element and the local soundtrack. At the same time, he asked the authors about the experience of their development in the studio and creative approach.
33 Immortals is slated for release in 2024 for Xbox Series and PC.
