Paragon: The Overprime is a strategic MOBA game where two opposing teams of heroes battle to destroy each other's bases.

Overprime combines a 3D 3rd-person shooter with the MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) genre, celebrating both dynamic attack skills of the unique heroes and thrilled ambience across sci-fi inspired battlefields.

Choose one of the powerful heroes with unique skills, and work with your teammates to achieve the Prime Battlefield goals. Speed across the battlefield with the Prime heroes and feel the thrill of the action.

Lead the team with the tactical use of the powerful skills! Use wisely each hero's skill to build a unique strategy to conquer the opponent's base. Cooperate with your fellows to discover new ingenious ways of team fight. Unite, mastermind and lead your team to victory!

There are several heroes, and each hero is unique with specific skill sets and battle techniques. The choice of items you equip your hero with may determine an outcome of the battle. Try out different sets by customizing various items to make your hero undefeatable. In Training Mode, you can test different heroes and items, improve your playing skills and find new ways of utilizing the battlefield. New heroes will constantly be added in the future, so you will never cease to enjoy trying out new sets and combinations.

Netmarble announced ASCAP award-winning and BAFTA nominated composer Jack Wall has scored the soundtrack for Overprime.

The interview provides an in-depth look at the creation of Overprime’s original soundtrack. Jack shares his creative process for writing music by absorbing every aspect of the game – analyzing concept art, story documents, gameplay mechanics, level designs and more. Having these various components at his disposal allows him to begin crafting the game’s musical themes.

For Overprime’s soundtrack, Jack pursued his majestic sounds by conducting and recording the score at Giuseppe Verdi hall in Budapest. This was to create a large, epic sound to bolster the memorable theme overall. In regard to working with Netmarble, Jack stated, “We had so much fun, Netmarble staff were always respectful, and being thoughtful about their feedback. So it went very well.”

For over 20 years, Jack has created memorable soundtracks across popular video game franchises including the Call of Duty series, Mass Effect series, Myst series, and Lost Planet 3, among many others. Known for working with world-class orchestras, Jack encompasses a diverse range of musical styles and influences: from ethereal ambience, choral crescendos and heavy tribal orchestra to traditional Asian, Middle-Eastern, Eastern European instrumentation, futuristic electronic soundscapes and big band jazz recorded with the world’s top musicians.

Utilizing the assets of ‘Paragon’ developed by Epic Games in 2016, Overprime succeeds the previous title, providing a brand new 3D TPS MOBA experience for users, while benchmarking the smooth, high-quality graphics of the previous title.

Overprime is in development for PC (Steam).
