Ubisoft updates its official The Matrix Online Web site with gameplay information and answers to frequently asked questions.
Ubisoft has recently updated the official Web site for its upcoming movie-inspired massively-multiplayer online role-playing game with new information and answers to frequently asked questions. Currently in development at Monolith and EON Productions, the game will be set after the events of the movie trilogy, and will take place in a sprawling city within the Matrix itself, complete with subways, nightclubs, skyscrapers, and dark alleys.
No 'real world' gameplay will feature in the game, and once they've created their character, players will effectively be logged into the Matrix as if they were aboard a real world hovercraft at broadcast depth. Once they're inside the Matrix, players will be able to participate in solo or group missions against non-player characters, or even pit their skills against those of one the thousands of other players inhabiting the virtual world in player versus player combat. Multiple martial arts styles and firearms will feature in the game, and in order to master different techniques players will be able to download Matrix ability codes in the same way that characters like Neo and Trinity do in the Matrix movies. Ability codes are one of the features that will distinguish The Matrix Online from other online role-playing games because, unlike skills in other games, they can be swapped out and exchanged for added flexibility when developing a character.
