Breach and Clear: Deadline brings tactical thinking to zombie slaughter
A zombie apocalypse is no excuse for sloppy tactics. That's the thinking behind Breach and Clear: Deadline, an undead twist on the top-down strategy genre and offshoot of the iOS/Android game Breach and Clear. In Deadline, ransacked interiors and mangled streets are home to various forms of infected; parasitic worms capable of "hyper-evolution" have invaded the soft, squishy bodies of the former humans that once lived here. Okay, so they're not technically undead zombies, but the upside is that Mighty Rabbit is using the hyper-evolving worms as justification for a new campaign, a wide variety of enemies and a fresh gameplay experience.
Breach and Clear follow-up sets a deadline for this fall
Mighty Rabbit Studios announced a follow-up to its tactical military action game Breach and Clear today. Going by the name Breach and Clear: Deadline, the game will arrive on Steam's Early Access service for PC, Mac and Linux this fall for $19.99 (£12.99). Unlike the first game, which began on mobile devices before breaching Steam's walls via Greenlight, publisher Gun Media did not list mobile platforms among Deadline's destinations. Deadline adds to Breach and Clear's warfaring gameplay by introducing real-time strategy elements to the series. Players will boss their squad around with new Command Mode tools, giving orders on-the-fly during battle. The game is set in the "urban expanse of Harbor City," in which players must find the source of a parasitic infection that's causing the city's inhabitants to turn into monsters. They'll also level up their team along the way and complete side quests to earn "rare ammo, weapons and gear." [Image: Gun Media]
Breach and Clear plans Steam Greenlight infiltration
Mighty Rabbit Studios' mobile tactical military strategy game Breach and Clear is coming to Steam, the developer has announced, and is currently up for voting on Steam Greenlight. The PC port of Breach and Clear will include everything in the mobile release on top of a new mission, squads, weapons and spec ops teams, redesigned UI elements and a permadeath mode. Micro-transactions have also been stripped out for PC. There's currently no timetable for launch on Steam, though understandably the quicker Breach and Clear gets its votes on Steam Greenlight, the quicker it is likely to launch on Steam.
A touch of military-grade tactics in Breach & Clear
This is Portabliss, a column about downloadable games that can be played on the go. Taking cues from the realism and mission planning in the original Rainbow Six games, Breach & Clear offers iOS players a turn-based, tactical strategy game with mountains of potential. Sadly, the Gun and Mighty Rabbit Studios project never reaches that potential, because much of the game is still in development. Initially, Breach & Clear captured my heart. Missions require strict planning and can be slow and plodding, which is directly up my extraordinarily boring alley. A customizable four-man squad, drawn from real world military organizations in the USA and Canada, enters a mission and can approach from a number of different entry points. In Breach & Clear's lone mode, Terrorist Hunt, the goal is to wipe out each room. It's entertaining at first, but after multiple plays of each of the game's fifteen missions at varying difficulties, Breach & Clear gets stale.%Gallery-194781%
