Imagine Dragons Manager and Singer Reveal Their First Video Game

In one of Summer Game Fest’s exclusive world premieres, the game known as “The Last Flag” has been unveiled. This Capture the Flag-style hero shooter is the creation of Night Street Games, a studio established by Mac and Dan Reynolds, who are respectively the manager and vocalist of Imagine Dragons. The game, The Last Flag, unfolds in an engaging fictional ’70s game show setting, complete with a humorous narrator and sound effects incorporating Dan’s distinctive voice.

At Summer Game Fest, a fresh trailer unveiled the identity of the shooter in Last Flag, highlighting its diverse roster of playable characters. With ten unique characters to select from, each equipped with distinct weapons and skills, the only competition for versatile team formations is the vastness of the maps where players can conceal their flags. The expansiveness of these maps sets Last Flag apart, as success doesn’t hinge on who shoots the best, but rather on who locates and retrieves the flag most swiftly amidst frenetic and tactical team skirmishes.

New Capture the Flag Shooter Last Flag Puts the Hunt in Focus

The preview for “Last Flag” emphasized its characters, actions, tactics, and distinctive animations, giving off a vibe similar to the team-based cartoonish style in “Team Fortress 2”. Detailed observers might spot the varying weapons and unique styles among all the characters, each one reflecting their individual personalities. Attention to detail in sound design is significant for every character in “Last Flag”, as each competitor has a unique voice and specific sound effects. One of the main attractions of “Last Flag” could be the attention paid to its levels or maps.

The fundamental concept of “Last Flag” revolves around ensuring the thrill of exploration matches the excitement of combat. Consequently, the trailer only offers a glimpse of what the game’s maps truly hold. Each map is brimming with hidden spots like caves, tunnels, and nooks where teams can conceal their flags. Additionally, there are towers that can detect the flag within certain zones on the map, making control of these towers strategically beneficial over time. Even without these towers, locating the flag could end the game swiftly with a dash instead of a gunfight. Players should also be aware that each flag has a distinctive melody playing nearby, so keeping their ears open is crucial.

On these expansive maps that effectively utilize their available area, players will find themselves engaged in the familiar hero shooter gameplay, with an exciting twist: unexpectedly encountering the opposing team’s flag as they round a corner. While it might be some time before newcomers get to experience the game firsthand, the anticipation is high, as it promises to deliver a satisfying gaming experience worth waiting for. Keep an eye on Last Flag‘s official channels for updates and potential opportunities to participate in playtesting later this year.
