Reading about Black Desert's new game mode, War of the Roses, it feels like the next evolution of World of Warcraft's legendary Alterac Valley, a massive battle, 40 players to a side. Despite some issues with faction balance and toxic turtling, it remains a beloved fixture of early WoW PvP. With War of the Roses, it seems as if developer Pearl Abyss has asked themselves "what if we did Alterac Valley, but made it even bigger"?
The game mode is 300 vs. 300. Yes, this galactic battle of anime-inspired MMO brutality features six hundred players at a time vying for fabulous rewards and PvP glory. The first season of the new mode starts today, July 14, and it's bound to be a bloodbath.
