Paragon, one the more ironic victims of Fortnite's success as it was destroyed by a game made by its own company, looks to be getting a revival of sorts. Paragon: The Overprime looks like it's bringing the stunning MOBA back to life as a free-to-play title.

    Admittedly this is kinda funny considering there's like 3 other dev teams out there cloning Paragon. We could potentially end up with 4 very similar games. Hopefully all teams find success though.

    The game went F2P? Wouldn't play this even if I got paid.

    Did you even read the article before responding? It was shut down a few years ago by Epic after the success of Fortnite and now its been picked up by another company. It hasn't been in operation since it was closed by Epic and it will launch in some form or another on 10 Nov. as a f2p title. It originally had an up front cost to play, which was a huge mistake considering its competition in the MOBA market. To Epic's credit, they gave everyone who purchased the game and anything bought in the in game store (skins etc.) their money back when they shut it down.

    I played it for a while and it was fun. It's kind of like a better looking Smite. I'll probably give it another shot just for old times sake at the very least. I don't have my hopes too high considering the company now involved but who knows.

    As someone who has played a lot of mobas, there was very little unique about Paragon, and what few things it had to distinguish itself (the card based gear system namely), weren't great ideas.

    as it should be the OG paragon was not great it needs an item system and so on

    Hopefully Netmarble tries to overly monetize the card system because overly monetizing the card system is what killed Paragon in the first place.

    HELL YEAH!! I am so happy that it's coming back. The tried remakes by some people was''ok''. But the original was better. I really hope this time the plug will not get pulled out of it. Aldo, it's not getting hosted by Epic themselves this time.

    Yo if you are going to report on a trash game at least do the full thing and mention the 3 other releases of it.

    It's not even just that. This is more-so a "arcadey"-like moba experience. The resemblance to OG paragon is bare minimum. Different item system, sure.

    There are also numerous other iterations of Paragon remakes;

    Fault (which is shutting down)
    Overprime (before it was relabeled)
    Predecessor (the more comparable "Paragon"-esque remake)
