Steam reviews

What players say

Players like its team-focused tactical shooting and free access, but pay-to-progress economy, high latency and matchmaking problems pull many toward a negative verdict.

Many players praise the tactical, team-based combat, the distinct operator roles and the fact that the game is free to play, with PvE missions especially enjoyed with friends. Some describe the gunplay as solid and the short match length as ideal for quick sessions. Complaints centre on the monetisation: many players say the premium currency and expensive operators and skins make progression a grind unless they pay, and some say the economy feels aggressive. Many also report high ping from the loss of Asian servers, long matchmaking waits, and disconnects that end matches. Some reviewers say the anti-cheat blocks Steam Deck and Linux play. Reviews from the last year lean more negative than Steam's overall totals, and players with very long playtimes are more critical of balance and the economy than newcomers.

Praised

  • Team-based tactical gameplay

    Operator roles and coordination matter, so matches reward communication and positioning rather than run-and-gun play.

    Many players
  • Free to play with PvE co-op

    Players enjoy the free access and PvE missions, especially when played solo or with a squad of friends.

    Many players
  • Varied operators and playstyles

    Many operators with unique weapons and abilities let players experiment with different roles for a long time.

    Some players
  • Short, flexible matches

    Matches are short enough to play in quick sessions, which players find suits breaks and busy days.

    A few players

Criticised

  • Pay-to-progress economy

    Premium currency, expensive operators and skins, and slow grinding make progression hard without paying.

    Many players
  • Matchmaking and disconnects

    Long queues, lobbies with bots, and disconnected teammates who are not replaced ruin matches.

    Many players
  • High ping after server loss

    Players report 200+ ping since Asian servers were removed and no way to change region.

    Some players
  • Anti-cheat blocks Linux and Steam Deck

    The anti-cheat stops play on Steam Deck under Proton and Linux, and some players are flagged or banned wrongly.

    Some players
Who it suits
Players who want a free, team-focused tactical shooter and enjoy cooperative PvE with friends.
Who should skip it
Players who dislike paying for progression, have unstable connections, or play on Linux or Steam Deck should skip it.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with hundreds of hours are more critical of balance, the economy and recent changes, while newcomers mostly praise the teamwork and free access.
