New 'Paragon' Character Greystone Bringing Some Sword And Board Action To The Game This Week

He gets knocked down, but he gets up again.

Among the many futuristic creatures in 'Paragon' wielding high-tech weapons and cybernetic armor, the MOBA's newest fighter is bringing things back to the age of knights.

The newest 'Paragon' character, Greystone, will be joining the roster this week for the game's early access audience. Armed with a sword and shield, and a faint whiff of some sort of demonic pact, Greystone is at home in team fights, battling it out in the vanguard, according to the developers. Inherently tanky thanks to his passive bonus of resistance, Greystone's abilities allow him to initiate with a leap and then deal damage in an area while swiping at enemies with basic attacks. His ultimate ability, however, will likely make him a thorn in the sides of opponents. When he dies, Greystone's ability lets him respawn exactly where he fell with part of his health back and a full tank of mana to continue the fight.

Greystone will launch in 'Paragon' starting Tuesday, July 12. You can catch his abilities—and his Prince Charming aesthetic—in action in the reveal trailer below.
