Gameplay

The game is a third-person shooter game, so you can expect a lot of action to take place within the game. When you take a mission for a client, you’ll need to fight your way through countless enemies. 

The clients’ idea to hire you is to take control of the world at large and you need to win against the rival corporations. You can play the game in a single-player mode or a multiplayer mode too. 

The more you win, either as a single-player or a multiplayer mode, you get credit credits that will help you level up. It’s easy to win battles with better weapons that are locked and the credits can unlock them.

You can also take part in the 1-on-1 battle - this happens when an arena mechanic returns and makes it happen. When you fight 1-on-1, this can also happen when you play against the AI. 

Even if you’re playing on multiplayer mode - there’s no time you’ll fight against the person you’re playing with.
