Paragon: The Overprime closed beta test is happening now on PS5

Remember Paragon? The Epic Games developed third person MOBA from years ago that you probably played, if only for a match or two? Well, it has been revived by Korean team Netmarble Corporation as Paragon: The Overprime, and it’s hosting a closed beta test right now on PlayStation 5. The beta is running through September 25^th and features 36 playable characters, the Red Moon event, which is a new 5v5 solo lane mode that randomly selects characters for each player. Paragon: The Overprime supports several PS5-specific features, including adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and the ability to launch matches through Activity Cards.

I tried out the beta recently because I have a soft spot for the original game, and I have to say, I had a good time with it. What started as me jumping in for just 15 or 20-minutes to check it out turned into an hour-plus long session. If you want to check it out for yourself, you can request a beta code through the game’s website.
