Blacklight: Tango Down is a first person squad-based
shooter coming to Xbox Live Arcade on July the 7th.Yeah, yeah, we’ve seen loads of squad-based
shooters, what makes this one any different from the rest?How about ‘literally trillions of different
weapon combinations’?
Zombie Studios, the developer behind Blacklight: Tango
Down, have revealed that the six core weapon types can be customised with
near-limitless permutations.Gun
stocks, magazines, scopes and so on can all be tweaked and tuned to your taste
to provide you with your perfect gun.I
shall be going for a pink fluffy model with furry dice hanging off the trigger.
At 1200 Microsoft points Blacklight: Tango Down isn’t a
bargain-basement Arcade release, however Zombie Studios are promising that
their DLC title will be of AAA quality.
The
game is set 25 years in the future and is said to be ‘Call of Duty meets
Bladerunner’, sounds interesting, particularly if you’re old enough to remember
Bladerunner (it was when Harrison Ford was young).With four single player/online co-op multiplayer levels, twelve online
multiplayer versus levels, seven game types and a squillion weapons, there
should be fun for some time.
