Jan 08, 2019 All good things must come to an end, even Orcs Must Die! Unchained, as developer Robot Entertainment has announced the title - along with games Hero Academy and Hero Academy 2. Orcs Must Die! Unchained, a free-to-play version of the highly popular tower defence series, had been running on PCs since April 2017 (and later on PlayStation 4). Hero Academy was a little older, having debuted on mobile devices in January 2012, but its sequel only launched in January last year.
. WW: July 18, 2017,Mode(s),Orcs Must Die! Unchained was the third installment in the franchise from, available for. Unchained was initially released as a beta version in 2014, and in its release form on April 18, 2017 for the Windows platform, while the PlayStation 4 version was released on July 18, 2017.As with the previous titles, Unchained is a variation on games, where the player places traps within the game's levels and engages in direct combat with a selected hero characters to ward off several waves of orcs and other monsters from reaching a magic core. While the game was available to purchase during its beta period, Unchained was released as a title with a meta-game for players to earn in-game currency and upgrades through successful matches to improve traps and acquire other items and attributes to support their character, or which they can buy directly using real world money.
The game includes co-operative matches for up to three players against opponents, and a competitive mode between two teams of three, competing on separate instances of the map but with the ability to affect the other team's performance; the game previously featured a competitive, 5v5 player-versus-player mode named Siege that was dropped during the beta phase.Robot Entertainment shut down the game's servers in April 2019, after running the game at a financial loss for several months. Contents.Gameplay Unchained follows the general hybrid gameplay of tower defense and action games used in the series' previous titles. Players use a combination of direct attacks and numerous traps to prevent hordes of monsters from reaching a core. In open beta, the game was divided between its cooperative Survival mode, and its competitive Siege mode. Since its December 2016 update, the Siege mode has been dropped from the game entirely.

Following their big overhaul of the system this past fall, officially got released on the PC back in April. There have been a number of patches and updates since that time, including one that added a 3v3 PvP mode back into the game, and it appears the title is now at a point where it's good for a console release.The big update last November removed all of the PvP/MOBA style elements from the game and returned the title to its PvE killing orcs roots.
For a time, the only two modes available to play were the classic Survival (build traps and fight off a fixed number of orcs) and Endless modes (go until the orcs beat you). There was still a roster of heroes with different stats and abilities from which you could choose and unlock using either in-game currency earned by playing, or the premium currency, but they no longer rotated out. Since that big shift, a PvP mode (Sabotage) has been added back into the game, as well as a new mode, Chaos Rifts, that provide seasoned players with a little extra challenge. As a platform for delivering more Orcs Must Die! content, it mostly works and is a pretty fun way to get some orc-killing action.The PlayStation 4 version of Orcs Must Die! Unchained will be available on July 18, 2017. Similar to the PC version, it will be free-to-play with in-game purchases available, and it will support three player online co-op in the Survival, Endless, and Chaos Rift modes.
