Crackdown 3

Uncontrolled demolitions and death from above in multiplayer

- Robin Valentine

Not only does Microsoft’s next killer exclusive finally have a release date – 15 February next year – but we’ve also been treated to an extended look at its explosive multiplayer. While you may be most looking forward to getting let loose in the open world and hunting down agility orbs, the online half of Crackdown 3 is not to be overlooked. If you’ve got an appetite for destruction, it might just be your new favourite competitive shooter…

Sheer, uncontained destruction is the name of the game. Across the densely packed maps, every building is fully destructible, crumbling into broken pieces whenever a stray rocket hits – making cover only ever a temporary convenience.
