Hood: Outlaws and Legends Gets a Launch Time for PC as well as Consoles

Hood: Outlaws and Legends managed to turn heads with its announcement last year. The medieval heist title from the house of Focus Home Interactive is set to be one of the most exciting titles of this year. Hood: Outlaws and Legends is a multiplayer heist title that takes players into the world of ruthless medieval gangs. The goal of the game is simple; to loot money from the rich and donate it to the poor. If that sounds familiar, that is because it is. The title has drawn inspiration from many folk stories, most notably from the Robin Hood lore.

Here is what the official description says about this much-anticipated title,

“In a violent, medieval world, outplay rival gangs in intense PvPvE multiplayer heists. Moving in stealth to steal treasures unseen or dominating through loud and brutal combat, only the best will escape with hard-earned riches.”

The community has been waiting in anticipation of this title, and we finally have a date of release. The official Twitter handle of the game has announced the launch times for PC as well as consoles.

 Hood: Outlaws and Legends mixes Assassin’s Creed with Robin Hood, and more

This PvPvE title is hugely reminiscent of Assassin’s Creed franchise because of the way it looks. Hooded figures attacking from the shadows in a medieval title? It is all too familiar. However, there is more to the game than that.

Hood: Outlaws and Legends pits two teams of outlaws on a race against each other in order to find a coveted treasure. Each team consists of four players. Furthermore, players in the game are divided into four classes based on their combat styles. The Ranger, as the name suggests, is good with arrows and ranged weapons.

Next up is the Brawler, which is basically a medieval version of the tank class of MMORPG titles. The Mystic is obviously the mage, and the Hunter is a close-quarters combat specialist.

The amalgamation of these various elements makes the concept of the game quite fresh. It is no wonder it has raised such hype around it.
