Pro Wrestling Battle Royale Game Rumbleverse Gets Release Date

gamerant.com:

Epic Games has a new free-to-play battle royale game coming soon. Over the past several months, developer Iron Galaxy has been holding several increasingly large playtests for its battle royale, Rumbleverse. These tests have drawn a significant amount of attention to Rumbleverse, which stands out with its unique pro-wrestling-themed action gameplay. It's worked out so well that Iron Galaxy feels confident enough to fully launch Rumbleverse sooner than expected.

Rumbleverse will now officially launch on August 11 and will be available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. As promised, Rumbleverse will be launching as a free-to-play game, so all interested players will be able to download and play once the game goes live on launch day. There are no codes required. Iron Galaxy had previously said that it planned to have an early access period before fulling launching the game, but playtests have persuaded the team to fully launch straight away.

As promised, Iron Galaxy will also be delivering a long-awaited featured coinciding with the launch of Rumbleverse. Playtests so far have revolved around single-player action, but players have been asking for group queues, too. Launch will see the delivery of Duos so that two players can join a match together. It's a missed opportunity to call it Tag Teams, but at least friends can soon group up. There's no word on three or four-player queues yet.

One other announcement made alongside today's Rumbleverse release date reveal is Iron Galaxy's plans for Season One. The first season of Rumbleverse's live service will be slightly delayed from launch if only to allow Iron Galaxy to address any unexpected major concerns. Season One
