"Deathmatch lives."
- Release tagline
Deathmatch Revival is a first-person-shooter deathmatch game concept by Red-Verse-Writer. Designed as a spiritual successor to classic deathmatch games such as Quake III: Arena and Unreal Tournament and a potential revival and reinvention of the often stagnated genre, the game revolves around either fifty players engaging in a free-for-all or two teams of twenty-five players engaging in team deathmatches and capture the flag, steal the bacon or king of the hill game matches.
Gameplay[]
Deathmatch Revival provides a complete overhaul to the classic deathmatch formula, with new gameplay styles and mechanics. Players can run, jump, crouch and crawl, slide along the ground, jump off walls, and use various abilities bestowed by the different gameplay styles or by pickups found on the map.
Weapons[]
Tier 1 (Blue)[]
Tier 1 weapons are the weakest weapons in the game, and include all the weapons that a player spawns with.
- Axe: The main melee weapon of the game. It uses no ammo and does 50 damage per hit, making it capable of killing a unarmoured enemy in Deathmatch or Team Deathmatch in two swings. However, it has poor range, and is primarily intended to be used to either conserve ammo at close range, as a last resort, or to humiliate a wounded enemy. All players spawn with the Axe.
- Assault Pistol: The central sidearm of the game.
- SMG:
- Grappling Hook:
- Flash Grenade:
Tier 2 (Green)[]
Tier 2 weapons are stronger than Tier 1 weapons, but weaker than Tier 3 weapons. They also tend to be available to any freshly respawned player in Capture The Flag, Steal The Bacon and King of The Hill modes, depending on the character class chosen.
