Skills & Progression | |
Ability progression is tied to collected Gear pieces and weapon modifications rather than traditional skill trees tied to player XP. Players increase their rank by earning XP, which unlocks access to better gear and weapons from vendors. Resolver weapons and Supremo backpacks provide unique, powerful active abilities and are crafted/upgraded at workbenches using gathered resources like Depleted Uranium. |

Multiplayer Details | |
Features a two-player online cooperative mode for the main campaign and separate cooperative Special Operations missions accessible from camps. |
1. Protect the Loop (Online PvP): Players can choose to invade another player's game (who is playing as Colt) as Julianna Blake. Julianna's objective is to hunt down and kill Colt, protecting the time loop. She has her own progression, loadouts, and abilities. This mode can also be set to 'Friends Only' or 'Offline' (where Julianna is AI-controlled). 2. Single-Player Campaign (as Colt): The primary mode where players control Colt Vahn, attempting to assassinate the eight Visionaries and break the time loop, while also being hunted by an AI or player-controlled Julianna. |
