Combat

Every shot has a purpose.

Precise gun handling and readable encounters are central to the experience. Work with your team, control angles, and make the objective matter as much as the next elimination.

Movement

Know your way through.

Use routes, elevation, cover, and the space around you to create opportunities. Map knowledge and coordinated movement turn familiar ground into an advantage.

Weapons

Steel meets plasma.

Annu’s military weapons face Naki’s energy-based technology. Distinct tools create different tactical choices without changing the importance of aim and teamwork.

Maps

A future inside the ruins.

Ancient stone, monumental architecture, and traces of advanced technology define the world. Official battlegrounds are in development, with community maps planned for the future.
