Paragon: The Overprime for Windows

Sci-fi team battles between a variety of heroes

Paragon: The Overprime is a free-to-play MOBA game based around team play. The title uses assets from Epic Games' uncompleted Paragon, giving players a clear idea of what that game might have been like had it seen full release.

In that it takes characterization seriously, Paragon: The Overprime is comparable to titles like Overwatch and Fortnite. Players have an array of detailed heroes to choose from, plus the game offers both PvP and team-based multiplayer modes.

Enter a world of planetary conflict

Paragon: The Overprime plunges players into a world of science fiction. You must choose your character from a variety of sci-fi heroes and send them into battle on a hi-tech planet. Team up with other heroes to destroy the enemy base and win the mission.

A cast of characters

One of the main selling points of Paragon: The Overprime is its extensive cast of characters. The playable heroes are divided into the categories of Warrior, Support, Ranger, Caster, Tank and Assassin, ranging from the android Muriel to the cat-like Howitzer. Each character has its own cinematic feel.

Paragon sees release at last

Despite never being completed, the original Paragon picked up a cult following as a result of its assets being released on a free-to-use basis. Paragon: The Overprime is one of the most thorough attempts to recreate the Paragon experience, being authorized by the IP holders. That said, it remains similar to other games made using the same assets.

Will please fans of team battles

Behind its colorful cast and complicated development history, Paragon: The Overprime turns out to be an entirely solid game for fans of team-based MOBA titles. The action is hectic as heroes on each faction blast away at each other, trying to destroy the enemy base and win the match.
