Way of Redemption channels Windjammers with its ‘multiplayer online sports arena’

Way of Redemption is a literal interpretation of the term “esports.” It’s a fantasy-themed arcade sports battler that pitches players against each other in a Windjammers-esque duel. It’s the latest game from developer Pixel Cream, and it will be out for PC and PlayStation 4 on November 7.

Pixel Cream describes Way of Redemption as a “multiplayer online sports arena,” a play on the multiplayer online battle arena genre. Players can compete in matches that are either 1-vs.-1 or 2-vs.-2, and both online and local multiplayer are available cross-platform. Each team attempts to punt a glowing orb into their opponents’ goal in order to score points. Ranked leagues also provide leaderboards so players can see how they stack up against the competition.
