A boss named “Sheriff” and knights will infiltrate castles guarded by archers and try to steal treasures that will earn rewards. Each of the castles will have its own unique surroundings and designs. There will also be hidden entrances and roads. Players will somehow infiltrate the castles to capture their rebirth points so that a player who dies in the line of duty will not have to start over. Next, we’re going to have to find the key to the stash where the treasure is stored. From time to time, we see tracks from Hunt Showdown and Payday 2, set in its own medieval universe.
In Hood: Outlaws & Legends, you’re not done finding the treasure. You will also need to safely take the treasure you found to a point and deliver it, while the opposing team will try to steal it from you. If you manage to save the treasure, you will move it out of the castle with the help of a crane and you will have successfully completed the mission. The four classes in the game are as follows:
- Ranger: Surrounded by a long arc, he is a reliable character who can take down enemies from almost any distance. He’ll even be able to bring the Sheriff to his knees, who is unstoppable with explosive arrows.
- Hunter: The assassin is a character based on secrecy. There’s a crossbow integrated into your arm, and it’s one-on-one to sneak down enemies. He’s got invisibility and smoke bomb skills.
- Brawler: Brawler, master of melee with his heavy weaponry and size, has the power to take down anything that gets in his way with a single hit. It also has the potential to directly defend your emerging team thanks to its special ability.
- Mystic: Capable of detecting nearby enemies, this character can also heal teammates. He also has a gun one-on-one for crowd control, which will make him indispensable to teams.
Thanks to the rewards you earn from the games, you will be able to improve and customize your character. Obviously Hood: Outlaws & Legends looks like it’s going to have a lot of fun gameplay. The game will be released on May 7, 2021 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One. For pre-order from the PC platform, you can visit the store page via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
