Roshan is on a ravenous, cheese-fueled rampage and Battle Pass owners are invited to venture beyond the surface of his lair into the heart of the Underhollow. Battle through a labyrinth filled with monsters, marvels, and many other three-player enemy squads as you search for Roshan's rarest cheese and work to be the last team standing. You'll need to navigate carefully to earn the XP and Gold needed to destroy your opponents. But don't take too long--Roshan's cheese frenzy is causing cave-ins as he moves towards the center of the Underhollow. Soon enough there will be nowhere left to run.Click to expand...

THE RAVENING BEGINS Deep below Roshan's lair, a wheel of the world's rarest cheese--Roshefort--slowly comes of age. Join the subterranean race against other teams and battle to be the bearers of the coveted cheese in this madcap multiplayer throwdown.Click to expand...

ENTER THE UNDERHOLLOW Tread carefully, and choose your path wisely. Roshan's labyrinth is home to fearsome beasts, cunning obstacles, and of course, a priceless wheel of cheese. Work together to explore the maze of caves before an enemy team--or worse, Roshan--finds you first.Click to expand...

THE SPOILS AWAIT YOU Survive the enemy onslaught and Roshan's advance to claim victory and liberate the Roshefort Wheel. In addition to the joy of defeating your enemies, and the thrill of outlasting the competition to escape the Underhollow, you might be in line for an influx of Battle Points.Click to expand...
People playing it will see their Battle Pass getting new levels for new rewards. Still no word on how many teams will be able to play it, but the "many other three-player enemy squads" sounds interesting enough. Battle my royales if old.

Everything : battle royal will release soon.

Man multiplayer this gen is really depressing. I was hoping for a lot better

Things like killzone warzone mode but even on a larger scale. With more dynamic level design like in uncharted 3 for example.

A 3 team warzone like mode would be amazing.

But sadly it's more of the same, or "hero's" with similar gameplay and map designs. And now battle royal.

Why aren't there 20 vs 20 vs 20 battle modes in FPS games, With destructable environments, with changing objectives during the march.

Why aren't there these epic huge multiplayer games with lots of gameplay mechanics and interactivity with the map.

It's just same as last gen basically with a thrown in gimmick. Last gen with the explosions of multiplayer games you had a lot of creative ideas and attempts come up even if they weren't successful.

Starhawk for example blended RTS with third person, with huge maps and big number counts

Killzone 2 had 32 epic multiplayer battles with dybadyn missions

Who it's always been big on PC but last gen Battlefield also kept pushing the multiplayer scene with physics and scale and such. And there are a lot more examples

This gen it just feels like Devs are following the current friend. Trying to be eSports, mobas and now battle royal games.

Thank god for For Honor and Rocket League, they are fresh experiences.
