BANDAI NAMCO announced today that Supernova, a real-time strategy (RTS) inspired online battle arena (MOBA) game for PC, is entering Closed Beta today.
To prepare players for battle, Supernova is also introducing a new melee brawler and commander, Targon.
According to the press release, Targon is a powerful, ax wielding fighter who can deal serious damage to his enemies and comes from a race of minotaur-like creatures called Aurocs who inhabit the planet Therion. When the legion of Faceless captured the Aurocs as servants for the Faceless homeworld, Targon proved to be a vicious and brutal brawler that got the attention of the Pit Boss, who gave him the title of The Arena’s new Gaoler. After a riot ensued, Targon became a prime target for angry, escaped slave gladiators. Barely fleeing with his life, Targon bought passage on a mercenary ship headed to battle in a faraway system where the ship’s captain offered Targon a chance to be a soldier, which he immediately accepted.
In addition to the new commander Targon, Closed Beta for Supernova features five new commander skins, two new force skins and new profile icons.
