Earlier today Deep Silver and Volition have released a new trailer for their upcoming title - "Agents of Mayhem", and interested gamers now have another trailer for the title that showcases the so-called "Franchise Force" of characters.
The trailer shows off the "Franchise Force" a squad of some of the main characters in the game Hollywood, Hardtack, and Fortune. Splicing together moments of cartoonish animation alongside more traditional video game trailer moments, the trailer itself gives would-be players a brief glimpse of what they can expect from the trio when the game launches in August.
As the "Face of MAYHEM", Hollywood thinks of the agency as a franchise which needs to be marketed. With Fortune and Hardtack making up some of the first recruited agents, it only seemed natural the three of them should be the driving "force" behind that "franchise."
Thus "Franchise Force" was born! Of course, it also helps their combat capabilities complement each other well since Fortune is swift and damaging, Hardtack is tough and deadly at close range, and Hollywood is a good mix of the other two, Gaming Instincts reports.
With the teleport technology capability of MAYHEM, agents in your squad are able to instantly teleport into and out of combat. This allows on-the-fly swapping of agents in the field, allowing one to heal while another takes their place, or allowing the best agent for a particular fight or task in your squad of three to replace the currently active one.
So far, "Agents of Mayhem" seems to be shaping up nicely. Hands-on previews of the title suggest that it is bringing back the fun of "Saints Row" alongside the use of its setting, albeit in a way that takes Volition in a different direction than before. Hopefully, the end result will prove to live up to the expectations set, as per GameRant.
