    About the game

    You play hired criminals in Midway City, a corporate city of the future built on an island. A job starts quietly. Before it begins you pick two guns and one gadget, then you sneak into a building and go after loot or data. Sooner or later an alarm goes off and the job turns into a firefight.

    The crew is up to four players. Shields, mines and turrets let you hold a spot while a vault is drilled, and ammo is scarce, so careful shots beat spraying. In the press preview a mission only ended well if all four reached the exit. Some jobs also drop you into short timed Dives, strange platforming runs through a target's mind.

    No release date is set, and the hands-on reports come from a 2025 pre-alpha, so these details may change.
