Bigpoint, the video game studio behind online games such as Battlestar Galactica Online and Seafight, has announced that another title is now in the works.

Merc Elite is a Unity-powered massive online battle arena (MOBA) game set in the near future.  The main focus of the game is player-versus-player (PvP) combat in which up to five players can team up to battle each other in domination play where two teams vie for control of the majority of a map's flags.  Other features of this in-development title include direct fire shooting, precise line of sight, directional cover, a top-down perspective, customizable characters and weapons, and more than 120 skills.

Furthermore, Bigpoint has revealed that the game will have five unique classes for players to use: recon, assault, commander, heavy gunner, and tank.  Exact details of these classes are still under wraps.

There is no release information available at this time for Merc Elite.
