Sony has shared fresh details on Destruction AllStars, developer Lucid Games’ PS5-exclusive multiplayer driving romp, and tossed in a new gameplay trailer for good measure.
Destruction AllStars had initially been pencilled in as a PS5 launch title, but was delayed last month for release in February 2021, when it will be given away to PlayStation Plus subscribers. Despite its relative imminence, however, details have remained rather thin on the ground.
Now, though, in a PlayStation Blog post, Lucid Games has shared a new Destruction Allstars gameplay trailer, alongside word on the four game modes set to be included at launch – titled Mayhem, Carnado, Stockpile, and Gridfall – which will be playable solo, in a team with AI, or with friends and rivals in online multiplayer.
Mayhem is described as a classic deathmatch, playable solo or in teams, which challenges players to score the most points by dealing damage and wrecking opponents within the time limit. Carnado plays similarly but adds a new risk-reward element, with players able to score Gears (an in-game collectible item) by driving into the titular Carnado. This does mean, however, that they’ll need to walk perilously on-foot to retrieve a new vehicle.
