Vainglory’s Highly-Anticipated 5v5 Mode Is Right Around the Corner
The super popular mobile eSport, Vainglory, will soon be introducing its first 5v5 map, and players can now pre-register for it in hopes of early access and exclusive rewards.
Clicking here will take you to the pre-registration page for the “no compromises” 5v5 mode. Currently, Vainglory has operated as a 3v3 MOBA ever since it hit mobile in 2014. Saying that a 5v5 map is highly-anticipated is sort of an understatement. With its impressive graphics and precise controls, adding 5v5 to the mix will surely keep Vainglory on everyone’s radar.
The upcoming map is built from the ground up by former competitive players and designers from other leading MOBA’s. It will be interesting to see how the community reacts after playing 3-on-3 for so long. The developer, Super Evil Megacorp, has also been listening to feedback from the community as to what fans are looking for in a 5v5 MOBA:
“When we started Super Evil Megacorp, we set out to challenge the notion that mobile-first gamers were somehow inferior to gamers on other platforms,” said Super Evil Megacorp CEO Kristian Segerstrale. “We believed that every phone was a portable next-gen console and that every mobile player deserved games just as core, strategic and performant as players on PC. Over the past three years, millions of players across the globe rallied to our cause, embracing real-time multiplayer gaming on touchscreens, shifting the market in our direction.
“Fueled by that momentum, our mission now is creating a 5v5 MOBA that is deeply strategic and tactical, with console-grade performance, based on deep, original fantasy and personality-rich storytelling.”
Pro Vainglory teams came together in Las Vegas this month and participated in Amazon’s Mobile Masters competition. You can read more about Mobile Masters by checking out our recap.
