Breach & Clear: DEADline adds real-time strategy elements to the tactical combat action fans loved from the original, and mixes up a radical array of enemy types to test combat skills to the limit. As the commander of an elite Special Forces squad, players will venture far into the sprawling urban expanse of Harbor City to uncover the source of the infectious parasitic worms turning average citizens into horrifying monsters.

Breach & Clear: DEADline gives players full control over their entire squad, allowing them to issue orders to squadmates via the all-new Command Mode feature, allowing for greater on-the-fly decision making during enemy encounters. A variety of combat scenarios emphasizes the need for different approaches to survive the chaos. Plan and execute detailed strategies in dynamically generated situations to overcome enemies, move through the open world, and get closer to the source of the nefarious worm.

Gain experience, level up the squad’s core and tactical abilities, and take on numerous side quests in order to gain rare ammo, weapons and gear. Get in, clear the area and get closer to solving the mystery of the spreading sickness or die trying.

Breach & Clear: Deadline - Rebirth is a comprehensive new free update to the game that features multiple improvements to performance, visuals (shift to Unity 5 engine) and gameplay. The development team has been closely listening to the game’s community and implemented a plethora of player feedback since the release of Breach & Clear: Deadline last summer, including:

Overhauled Gameplay: Statistics for enemies, player characters, weapons and gear have had a huge balance pass, and a more enjoyable and consistently challenging experience has emerged. Dungeon generation has been modified to make each floor more exciting with more discoveries, more enemies to fight and hand-crafted enemy encounters at different intervals in each dungeon.

Smoother Controls: Fully reworked camera and shooting for the game’s real-time action mode. Vastly improved versus the original release with a smarter camera that is snappier and more responsive than ever.

Remastered Graphics: Every scene has had a full lighting pass, making way for a much more realized version of Harbor City than any previous version of the game. Textures have been retouched, compression settings have been modified and it now fully utilizes Unity 5’s physically based rendering.

Removal of Online Co-op: Underutilized since launch, the team made the decision to remove online co-op from the latest version of Breach & Clear: Deadline. This led to widespread performance and reliability enhancements as the code’s dependence on the servers and the need to be ready for drop-in/drop-out multiplayer at any moment was removed.

All of these changes have enabled the developers to greatly improve the game’s performance, load times and making everything more reliable.

This is the definitive, and complete, version of Breach & Clear: Deadline.

Key Features:

• Enthralling Action: Adds real-time strategy to a franchise already acclaimed for its tactical combat.
• New Modes: An all-new Command Mode gives total control over the entire squad for on-the-fly tactical planning.
