If thereโs one game Iโve been eagerly waiting to play properly, it is Supervive. Despite its generous playtests with community members and constant updates, we are all counting the days for an official release. To make the wait longer but the hype larger, Supervive has announced a new playtest starting in a few days, which those lucky enough to have access to the game can join. Furthermore, for those already familiar with a few of the gameโs concepts, Supervive is making some interesting changes to its gearing in the form of evolving items.
As you can see in the above image, Supervive has decided to change a few things up regarding evolving items. In my preview, I mentioned how itemization in the game was great as it wasnโt overwhelming or felt restrictive. However, it seems that now, once an item reaches Tier 3, youโll be able to pick one of three options. Most of the effects of these items still remain a mystery, but thereโs an example of the Tech Helm item evolving into new ones that offer shields, HP regeneration when outside of combat, and even sharing damage with another ally. This change to how gear works will definitely make gearing during a match more interesting and make way for different character builds.
Besides the evolving items, Supervive is also hosting a new playtest from September 5 to September 8, and it will feature important changes to how equipment works during a match. If you havenโt tried this game yet, nowโs your chance. You can still try to get a key for it by heading to the gameโs website and seeing if youโre lucky enough to jump into Supervive. If not, you should watch out for any new announcement because Iโve said it before, and Iโll say it again: Supervive is the next big live service game that will hook everyone who likes a bit of League combined with Overwatch and amazing sandbox elements.
