Ex-Overwatch director reveals a multiplayer lovechild of Read Dead and Rust, which I hope boasts nude shootouts

This municipality ain't large capable for 2 unclothed newbies

That's cool, but tin I whip retired a six-shooter portion my backstage parts dangle successful the breeze and origin a rootin' tootin' ruckus that leaves my enemies with chills going up their spine whenever they spot bare buttocks? This is the question I've recovered myself asking of The Legend of California, a multiplayer endurance shooter that the workplace presently led by erstwhile Overwatch manager Jeff Kaplan are releasing successful aboriginal entree this year.

Judging by its announcement trailer, Kaplan and the squad astatine Kintsugiyama person stuck Rust and Red Dead Online into a large blender. The result's a monolithic and ever-evolving postulation of biomes making up a facsimile of the aureate authorities successful the golden rush-era, with gangs of pardners moving astir successful stetsons. You tin sprout your chap cowboys, physique a ranch to service arsenic your base, and battle force strongholds. Or, you tin conscionable spell afloat bushperson, retreat into the wilds, and dedicate your beingness to foraging with crudely crafted weaponry astatine your side.

Sounds similar the benignant of endurance sandbox which could easy connection the backdrop to plentifulness of amusive evenings getting up to hijinks with your mates, particularly fixed Red Dead Online's dearth of caller additions successful caller years.

But. Can. You. Have. A. Nude. Battle. Royale? You know, the benignant that've agelong been an full genre of Rust YouTube video, arsenic newbies equipped with lone rocks, fists, and their sheer volition to past duke it retired successful genuinely Darwinian fashion.

Everyone successful The Legend of California's archetypal trailer and archetypal screenshots is clothed to my eye, truthful I don't know. All I tin bash is anticipation that the chaps are optional. You mightiness reason that taking connected a pack of outlaws successful thing but a chapeau and a brace of spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle is reckless and unrealistic. You're right, but I inactive deliberation it'll assistance this crippled cement itself amid the array of surviva-shenaniganers successful galore of our Steam libraries.

As of close now, each I tin bash is wishlist the crippled connected Steam and petition entree for an upcoming playtest. So, I've fired my revolver astatine those buttons and retreated to the saloon, wherever I'll past 5 minutes earlier being kicked retired for my deficiency of modesty.
