Players fight eachother in teams with the iconic guns of the time – as the name implies – loaded with black powder.

Weapon mechanics are one of the key features of Black Powder and influence the overall gameplay not only by the massive smoke emission that takes away your sight but also their realistic representation in the game.

This includes bullets fed with real life data that allows them to penetrate and ricochet.

Enough fat text ...get the horseshit off your spurs, come and see for yourself!

German based developer Division Games has launched a kickstarter campaign, looking for $11,970, in order to finish development on Black Powder.

Powered by Unreal Engine 4 we're able to provide cutting edge graphics in combination with streamlined realism, that will deliver an unrivalled first-person shooter experience.

The demo version of Black Powder (15 minutes of singlep layer fun) is available to all backers and will be sent out during our campaign!
