Gauntlet Development Coming To An EndGauntlet Players,It has been a busy year since our vision and remake of the arcade classic Gauntlet was released. In that time we have not only released one version, but recently released our newer, shinier updated version as well – Gauntlet: Slayer Edition – on both PC and PlayStation 4 console.While it has been great working with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, the development phase and our time together is now drawing to a close and Arrowhead’s involvement with the support of the game will come to an end. This means we likely will not release any more patches for the game. If anything were to ever change in the future we will of course keep the Gauntlet community updated.Frogwing and ForeverAPeon from Arrowhead will still be available in the Steam forum to chat and answer questions (and always on our brand new website of course!), but we ask all of you to continue to report any issues with a ticket to Warner Bros. Support, found, so that they can keep up to date with the current status and possibly arrange patches for major problems.We thank every single one of you for supporting us along this journey. It has been an incredible experience to work on one of our childhood favorite games and so much fun remaking this classic. We can only hope that you have enjoyed playing as well, and will continue having fun with friends for a long time to come.On a final note, as a parting gift we have made sure that the Gauntlet pre-order items will be available for all PC players for free beginning today.– The Arrowhead Team.

The traditional Gauntlet 4-player co-op gameplay returns in a new experience. Assume the role of one of 4 unique heroes in a monster-filled dungeon brawler. Battle the interminable hordes of enemies as you and your cohorts fight for treasure and glory via both local and online co-op multiplayer.

Slayer edition feels way more like original gauntlet which is what people wanted.The constant grind was irritating. My friends and I rarely played the game before the Slayer Edition update, mostly because what we used to play as a party game in the originals, became a trudge through a time consuming mass of levels that didn’t get very far and didn’t feel very fun.Maybe the “leveling” scheme was great for people who played primarily by themselves, but for people who wanted to play a multiplayer arcade game, the game didn’t do well at delivering and the leveling system only made it feel worse. Being on even ground made things a lot more enjoyable amongst people because then when people who weren’t able to play as much got to play, they weren’t a simple add on to the rest of the party who had increased stats. NooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooIs there any chance this could be picked up again and continue working on it at some point in the future?This has such a solid foundation of awesomeness the possibilities seem endless for continuing it’s growth!Unless you guys are doing something similar to this and it will be called something different.This was the funnest video game I have ever played and I’ve played a lot.“GAUNTLET Regeneration”???;).
