Rec Room, the social virtual world filled with mini-games and activities, recently introduced a battle royale mode called ‘Rec Royale’. A new update now allows players to group up in squads of three for team-based strategic action.
‘Rec Royale’ in Rec Room tosses a big group of players out of a plane onto a large island where they fight with guns and grenades to see who will be the last one standing. When the mode was first introduced it was free for all, with only one player crowned the ultimate victor.
A new update today puts players in groups of three, recreating the popular ‘squads’ mode of other rattle royale games. According to the developers, the Rec Royale squads mode is replacing solo mode for the time being (to ensure a healthy player population), but they may later reintroduce solo mode.
Now that players can team up, a ‘knock down’ mechanic has been introduced, meaning that players don’t die right away but rather get knocked down and can be revived by teammates. It’ll take a few seconds to get one of your friends back on their feet though, so timing is key. Along with the knock down and revive mechanics, the patch also introduces ‘radio voice chat’, which means teammates can hear each other even when they are out of shouting distance.
In addition to squads, the patch includes improvements for custom rooms and a handful of other changes, see the full changelog here.
