'LawBreakers' Introduces The Assassin - Trailer

by Rainier on July 25, 2016 @ 6:11 p.m. PDT

LawBreakers is a competitive FPS featuring team-based action from any angle. Its characters and spaces manipulate gravity to create a dynamic style of gameplay that rewards skill – not streaks.

Set in a futuristic rebuilt America, players will choose whether to kill for the nobility of the “Law,” or go out for blood as a “Breaker,” as they take part in the conflict raging across iconic locations including the boiling oceans off the Santa Monica coastline, to a gravity ravaged Grand Canyon and nearly unrecognizable Mount Rushmore.

After a huge cataclysmic event known as ‘The Shattering’ changed gravity forever. Society has recovered in a manner of speaking

Afterward, the world recovered and ushered in a new age technological advancements providing gravity manipulation and supplement use that grants near-superhuman abilities.  Now, the new technology rages and two forces fight for control; a peacekeeping organization charged with upholding the law, and a highly-organized crime syndicate bent on breaking it. Players will be asked to choose a side – it’s LAW versus BREAKERS.

The Assassin is easily one of the deadliest combatants on the battlefield. With her razor-sharp blades, powerful Romerus energy shotgun, and hyper mobility, she can bring death from above, below, or any other direction she pleases. Use the Arc Blade's grapple tech to swing circles around your opponents, disorient them with a Flux Blast, and Dash in to land the killing blows.

Hellion (Law): The literal thorn in the side of criminals everywhere, Hellion is an expert martial artist, unrelenting in the pursuit of injustice at the end of her razor-sharp blades.

Kitsune (Breaker): Some swear Kitsune is a demon; others a guardian. No one can quite be sure of her motives, but what has never been in dispute is her unlimited capacity for vengeance.

  • Weapons
    • Arc Blades: Lethal blades that convert to grappling hooks and allow the Assassin to swing above obstacles, letting her rain down a chain of deadly attacks.
    • Romerus Shotgun: A high-powered energy shotgun that can be overcharged, allowing it to super charge the next shot into single, devastating blast.
  • Abilities:
    • Flux Blast: An anomalous gravity grenade designed to knock opponents away and deflect projectiles away from the temporary gravity field it leaves behind.
    • Dash: The Assassin's incredible agility allows her to dash around opponents with ease, dodging projectiles, and concluding combat before it has a chance to begin.
    • Frenzy: A supplement-induced state which triggers a lethal spin attack followed by a heightened awareness that reveals all enemy positions. Each kill earned regenerates the Assassin's health.

Key Features:

  • A Cast Of Killers: Revel in unparalleled vertical violence by mastering the skills of an array of diverse anti-heroes, ranging from Cronos, a murderer who survived electrocution on death row to Axel, a federal agent with a tattered past fighting for justice. Whether you kill for the nobility of the “Law,” or are out for blood as a “Breaker,” these symmetrical roles satisfy any appetite in an arena where the most skilled player and team will rise.
  • Threats From Every Angle: Experience visceral gameplay that is a cut above the competitive FPS genre; with variable gravity effects, unique role based movement systems and gravity manipulating abilities, making combat truly three dimensional. Become a gravity surfing killer and annihilate your enemies with grappling blades, reverse blind firing, time dilation, jetpacks and much more.

  • A World Reimagined: Experience a futuristic America, years after a global seismic event known as “The Shattering” forever changed the landscape and even gravity itself. Become immersed into a raging conflict between Law and Breakers across iconic locations including the boiling oceans of Santa Monica, a gravity ravaged Grand Canyon and nearly unrecognizable Mount Rushmore.
