Gearbox working on a “top-secret” competitive FPS – Project 1v1

Gearbox working on a “top-secret” competitive FPS – Project 1v1

Gearbox, developers of Borderlands and Battleborn, is currently in development of a 1v1 shooter/collectible card game. It’s currently a “top-secret” project, Project 1v1, but it was revealed via this official website.

The site describes the game as follows:

Project 1v1 is the code name for Gearbox’s top-secret, in-development, competitive first-person shooter that combines the action of fast-paced 1v1 first-person combat with the metagame strategy of a collectible card game.

Project 1v1 will be holding a short Closed Technical Test this summer. We are looking for a limited number of players to test the online infrastructure and learn what players like you think about the game in order to inform and influence future development. The test will be held on North American servers, so international players may experience decreased performance.”

While they refer to it as “top-secret,” they are certainly doing a poor job of keeping it that way. The site is easily viewable and even contains a link to a short Project 1v1 Closed Technical Test to be conducted some time this summer.  The Closed Technical Test will have three modes:

  • RANKED: Match with an opponent based on player rating. Win ranked matches to earn experience and crates containing new cards.
  • CHALLENGE: Challenge your friend to an unranked match.
  • ARENA: Queue up to challenge the current Arena champion – and win to take their place.

Gearbox said only North American servers will be available, so think on that if you struggle with latency or don’t want to get up at 4:00am to play in peak US hours.

That’s about all we know, although artwork on the website shows a futuristic city with what seems to be Asian architectural influences as well as some sort of alien-looking jungle environment. It looks like Project 1v1 will be science fiction, then.
