Before the Dreamhaven exhibition, I had the chance to play “Wildgate” for a few hours, and despite the premise appearing familiar (it’s an artifact from an old space civilization), “Wildgate” is definitely enjoyable. Although players will uncover more lore as they progress through the game, given that the game world is thoroughly developed from its history to why we are competing for the artifact, my focus in this preview is on gameplay. Basically, each game consists of five teams, with each team comprising four players. Together, they explore a mystifying part of space called The Reach in search of The Artifact. Essentially, it’s a PvEvP experience where other teams and the environment create constant challenges for a group to triumph over and win by any means possible.
