Epic Games has revealed that, in a major update to their MOBA Paragon on December 6, the game will be changed in major ways, with a new map coming in the update as well.

"The Monolith Update represents the culmination of the past year of learnings, testings, playings, feedbackings, and talkings," Lead Hero Designer Cameron Winston writes. "The changes that we're making are based entirely on addressing key feedback items, both reported and directly observed."

"The goal of all these changes is very straightforward - we are confident that this new version of Paragon will deliver a faster, more visceral gameplay experience that you'd expect from an action game while retaining all of the meta game and strategy of a competitive MOBA. When the Monolith Update goes live on December 6, we hope you will play at least three games and then continue to give us the valuable feedback we have been receiving for the past year."

A new map is included and is roughly 30% smaller, and is asymmetrical as well, and along with this comes faster Hero movement and attack execution speeds for all, so that Epic can make the game feel faster. Do these changes sound like they'll work for Paragon? Have a look at the full patch notes and let us know below.
