Frantic arena combat with familiar weapons and tight maps, delivering instant action and quick respawns.

What players say

Players say the multiplayer is largely dead, with few active servers and low player counts. The game has visual quirks and physics bugs inherited from Half-Life Source, and some find weapon balance poor with no unlocks or progression.
