Key Features

Gameplay

As mentioned above, Paladins is an objective-based team first-person shooter. Each team is composed of five players and five champions, meaning that champions can’t be repeated. Champions have different skills and weapons that can be enhanced through a card system or a skin system. There are sixteen classic cards for each champion, and there is a maximum of five cards can be used at the same time. Also, only one of the three main talents can be used per session.

Other features

Paladins Characters: What is a Paladin? A paladin, or a Champion, is your character in the game - there are over 40 characters to choose from - so players can choose a Champion that resonates with them and their gaming style.
Abilities: Every champion has Classic skills (consist of a basic attack and often three skills with passive bonuses) and an Ultimate skill that is unique, powerful, and need to be charged.
Ambiance: Paladins mixes science fiction and fantasy elements - this means that there are characters whose style is inspired by the Middle Ages but that have shotguns and rifles. You are also free to fight thanks to magic and guns. In this quite unique world, you encounter different races, such as humans, different kinds of elves, dwarves, draenei, taurens.
Modes: The game offers four different modes: Siege where two teams of five players battle to capture the central point of the map; Onslaught where the kills are also important; Team Deathmatch where a team has to score more than its enemy to win; and finally, Ranked, that is the same as Siege but every team can choose two champions to ban (makes them unavailable for the other team as well).
