Sunset Overdrive’s Chaos Squad Is Eight-Player Mayhem
Insomniac has given us our first look at Sunset Overdrive’s eight-player mayhem mode. Chaos Squad will transport players to a multiplayer version of the open world (via photo booth) with clothing, amps, and weapons that transfer over directly from the single-player.
Once grouped with up to seven friends, you’ll have your choice of two randomly selected missions. Some examples include wiping out the mutants, racing to the top of a tower without falling off, ambushing a convoy, and scavenging for supplies.
After each successful mission, you and your team will get to choose two more. Eventually, you’ll face off in a “night defense” mode against waves of OD mutants. Lay traps, explode the orange masses, and come away with weapons that you can also use in the single-player mode.
Sunset Overdrive is due out on October 28 for Xbox One. For more, check out our preview from E3. You can also read up on the game's character customization.
