Dreadnought gets a new co-op mode on PS4

by Nicola Ardron on June 6, 2017

Grey Box, Six Foot and independent developer YAGER have released a new Havoc mode for the console-exclusive closed beta of Dreadnought on PS4.

The cooperative mode features three players attempting to survive as long as possible against progressively tougher waves of enemies from the Scavs, a new faction with their own unique ships. Havoc features two new maps: Xanthe and Hekate and each game allows players to select their preferred ships at the beginning of each match and upgrade them over time.

You can register for the Dreadnought closed beta on PS4 here, but if you want to gain instant access to the closed beta you can purchase one of the new Dreadnought Founder’s Packs:

PS4 Hunter Pack (£7.99 / $9.99 / €9.99) – Closed beta access, plus two Hero Ships (the PCF Morningstar Dreadnought and PCF Silesia Artillery Cruiser), 1,200 Grey Box Points (GP), which can be used to buy ship emblems, decals and more, 10,000 Credits, which can be spent on new ships, weapon upgrades and modules, seven days of Elite Status, which grants bonus experience and credits per match, two Fleet Recruitment Packs, and an assortment of coatings, emblems and decals.

PS4 Mercenary Pack (£31.99 / $39.99 / €39.99) – Closed beta access, plus five Hero Ships (the Huscarl Destroyer, Kali Tactical Cruiser, Outis Corvette, PCF Morningstar Dreadnought and PCF Silesia Artillery Cruiser), 3,500 GP, 25,000 Credits, 30 days of Elite Status, two Fleet Recruitment Packs, and an assortment of coatings, emblems and decals.

Dreadnought puts players in the captain’s chair of massive ships on the front lines of tactical team battles across a variety of competitive multiplayer modes. There are five distinct ship classes specialising in roles such as frontline assault, long-range, strategic and support. There are more than 50 playable vessels to learn and master, each with customisable weapons, modules, coatings and decals.
