Set in the near-future, Shoot on Sight challenges players to choose a side amidst a chaotic revolution. Decades of rule by the wealthy have pushed society to the brink, oppression and corruption are rampant, and rebels have risen up. Those rebels, called ‘Stagers,’ lead the uprising against The System, battling elite agents who defend their ill-gotten gains. During Early Access, players can elect to uphold the law as a member of the police force, or seek to liberate the world as Stagers-–with twelve unique characters for players to choose from, each armed with their own special abilities, unlocks, and intriguing backstories.
Smart tactics matter far more than weapons in this title; players can dive into solo play, competitive PvP, and cooperative PvE modes on dynamic maps. Nearly every object can be used creatively to gain an edge, and destructible environments allow players to uncover new strategies to outwit foes. Enemies can be tracked and ambushed by following blood trails, turning the tables just as adversaries think victory is within reach. Each encounter demands strategic thinking and teamwork, making Shoot on Sight a true test of tactical prowess.
Whether going solo, competing against others, or teaming up in 4-player modes, players will face computer-controlled allies and adversaries, ensuring a challenging and immersive experience. Shoot on Sight offers four game modes— Domination, Capture the Site, Bomb Site, and Retake—each offering a fresh tactical twist. As players explore these modes, they will unlock new weapons, gadgets, and abilities while discovering deeper layers of the epic conflict at the heart of the game.
Shoot on Sight will be available via Steam Early Access on August 12, 2024 for USD $14.99, and remain so until early 2025.
