Resistance 3 Multiplayer Revealed at GDC

This years GDC in San Francisco has given us the first official look at Resistance 3 multiplayer, and from the details we’ve been given so far it looks like it should be something special.

The games developer, Insomniac, explain via the official PSN Blog: “Resistance 3 will feature 16-player Human vs. Chimera deathmatch and objective-based modes set in locations across the globe. That may seem somewhat jarring after the 40 and 60-player mayhem in RFOM and R2. Rest assured though, our biggest motivation in determining our new player count was the fun times that we and the community had on maps like RFOM’s Busyard and Rooftops, as well as the Bayou House and San Francisco maps in Resistance 2.”  

Resistance 3 will also offer a “very deep and customizable progression system” with players able to create their own progression paths through the multiplayer by spending points they have earned to customize loadouts. Players can select and level different support abilities, like a Bubble Shield or Ammo Beacon. As well as this they will be able to use tactical abilities, such as the Doppelganger where you project an image of you nearby to distract enemies.  

Insomniac also confirmed that we will get a playable multiplayer Beta some time this year: “We’ve been working on this new direction for close to two years now, polishing and refining our maps. We’re having a ton of fun playing Resistance 3 in the office every day. We will be bringing a multiplayer beta to PSN later this year.”
