Reakktor Studios today released a “Gameplay Reveal Trailer” of their upcoming back-to-the-roots Arena-FPS, TOXIKK. According to the press release, the footage shows the alpha build of TOXIKK in action. TOXIKK plays as if today’s military shooters never existed: There is no leveling, no regenerating health, no perks, no cover systems, no classes, no configurable weapons and no iron sight aiming. Instead you get fast and precise movement (with deeply configurable mouse controls), double jumps, dodge jumps, booster pick-ups, nine iconic weapons to be carried around simultaneously, secondary fire modes for every weapon, vehicular game modes, jump pads, health-packs, lots of vertical gameplay, optional mutators (incl. instagib) and everything else that made these kind of games so addictive. Enjoy! Continue reading TOXIKK – 90s-style Arena FPS – Gets Gameplay Trailer
