Omeda Studios, a community-founded studio created by Robbie
Singh, launched its MOBA Predecessor into Open Beta today for free
on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 4/5 and Xbox Series
X|S; this is the first time Xbox players get to jump into the game.
Built on the foundation of Paragon, originally developed by Epic
Games but shut down in 2018, Omeda Studios’ Predecessor is a
refined and expanded take on the MOBA action that Paragon
pioneered. Open Beta is the first step of Predecessor’s launch
process as Omeda Studios has more to come in 2024. Players can
enter the Open Beta for free through Predecessor’s Steam, Epic
Games Store, PlayStation and Xbox Store pages.
Throughout 2024, Predecessor newcomers and veterans can expect
many more updates and improvements. Kicking things off with the
Open Beta, crossplay debuts where PC, PlayStation and Xbox players
can jump in together for fast-paced, third-person MOBA action. PC
players globally can now enjoy the game in French, German, Spanish,
Portuguese, Italian and simplified Chinese. Xbox and PlayStation
will receive language support shortly after. Languages will
continue to be implemented through development. 2024 will also see
constant visual improvements, the heavily-requested ranked mode, a
new secret game mode, matchmaking, new skins and item reworks.
“Predecessor has been such a labor of love, not just for me but
for all of us at Omeda Studios and the fact that we launched the
Open Beta today is a testament to our dedication but most
importantly, audiences’ love for the game,” said Robbie Singh,
Omeda CEO. “Our goal was to elevate the MOBA genre into something
fresh and enticing that players haven’t seen before, like the
third-person perspective. We already amassed over 400,000 players
on Steam Early Access and now that the game is available for PC,
PlayStation, and now Xbox players, we can’t wait to see that number
grow as more audiences jump into our game. 2024 is going to be a
monumental year for us and we can’t wait to share what we have
coming up. Stay tuned!”
Predecessor is a fast-paced action-MOBA title that combines
strategic thinking and teamwork with pulse-pounding combat. Two
teams of five players choose from a roster of more than 30 unique
Heroes and fight to protect their bases while working together to
take down the enemy team’s base. During the fight, players earn XP
to unlock and level up powerful abilities, while collecting gold to
buy items to help them defeat the enemy team.
Predecessor was born from the ashes of Epic Games’ now-defunct
MOBA Paragon. In 2020, Paragon’s most dedicated player and content
creator Robbie Singh created Omeda Studios not only to bring back
Paragon’s legacy, but to evolve it more with Predecessor. Building
upon Paragon’s existing visual assets, Omeda Studios overhauled the
game’s maps, gameplay mechanics, characters and more for something
new and improved that stays true to the heart of Paragon. More than
400,000 players are already playing Predecessor in Steam Early
Access and in a free closed beta on PlayStation.
Key Features:
- Truly Unique Gameplay - With the core of a MOBA but the
mechanics of a third-person shooter/brawler, Predecessor offers a
visceral experience that other MOBAs lack, while rewarding teamwork
and strategy in a way many shooters overlook.
- Over 30 playable characters - Predecessor’s deep
character roster contains over 30 unique Heroes with distinct play
styles and abilities.
- The Only Unreal Engine 5 MOBA - Created in Unreal Engine
5, Predecessor is the only MOBA to be developed in Unreal’s latest
engine. This new state-of-the-art game engine produces
high-resolution and high-fidelity graphics for current and previous
gen consoles.
- Play with Friends, No Matter Where They Are -
Predecessor was developed with both console and PC gamers in mind
with cross-play functionality so friends can play together
regardless of their platform.
- Earnable In-Game Content - Predecessor features a ton of
rewards, including custom skins, for players to earn or purchase
with in-game currency.
