What is Predecessor game based on?

Predecessor originated from the remnants of Epic Games’ former MOBA, Paragon.

In 2020, Robbie Singh, a dedicated player and content creator of Paragon, founded Omeda Studios with the dual objective of revitalizing Paragon’s essence and to evolve it with Predecessor.

By utilizing Paragon’s visual assets, Omeda Studios reimagined the game’s maps, mechanics, characters, and more, resulting in a fresh and enhanced gaming experience that stays true to Paragon’s fundamental principles.
