Shroud has announced that he has been collaborating with Mountaintop Studios on a new tactical FPS called Spectre Divide. Here is all the information we currently have about the game.
Shroud is widely recognized as a legendary figure in the world of FPS games, whether it be from his successful career as a professional Counter-Strike player (and a short period as a VCT player) or his frequent streams showcasing his skills in competitive shooters.
In recent years, he has expressed a desire to create FPS games and has also stated his involvement in other game development projects. On August 1, 2024, Shroud disclosed that he had been quietly working on a tactical FPS game for the past two years, and is now inviting his fans to join in on the excitement.
Spectre Divide Release Date
Although Spectre Divide does not currently have an official release date, a large playtest is planned to take place in the near future when the servers are opened.
According to a blog post on the Spectre Divide website, the playtest, which invites players to stress test the game, is scheduled to start on Saturday, August 3. The playtest will last for eight hours, from 12 PM to 8 PM PT.
Is Spectre Divide free to play?
Indeed, Spectre Divide will be a game that is free-to-play, and players will also be able to freely access subsequent playtests and the Closed Beta.
The game, Spectre Divide, can now be found on Steam where you can add it to your wishlist or request early access.
Spectre Divide Platforms
At present, the only platform Spectre Divide can be played on is PC.
At the moment, there are no plans from the developers to release it on consoles and it seems that it will remain available exclusively on PC for the foreseeable future.
Spectre Divide Closed Beta
Spectre Divide intends to release a Closed Beta, but the developers have decided to conduct a “stress test weekend”prior to its launch.
The developers have scheduled a stress test for the game’s servers on August 3, lasting for eight hours from 12 PM to 8 PM PT. During this time, playtesters will be given access to the game.
To participate in the stress test, players must add Spectre Divide to their Steam wishlist and click on the Request Access button on the game’s Steam page. If selected, players will be able to download the playtest for the game.
Additionally, participants were able to access the playtest by following a link provided by Shroud, however, this option has now been closed due to all 10,000 sign-ups being filled.
At present, there is no timetable available for the Closed Beta of Spectre Divide.
Spectre Divide gameplay details
Spectre Divide is a 3v3 tactical shooter featuring a classic defusal mode. Attackers must take control of a bomb site and plant the bomb, while defenders must protect the sites or retake them in order to defuse the bomb.
The caveat is that every player will possess a Duality. A Duality is an additional body that can be controlled, allowing you to place one at a certain location while being present at another in order to quickly rotate. This also grants you the advantage of effectively having two lives.
As a tactical shooter, accurate gunplay is crucial, as the developers have described it as exhibiting “true-to-crosshair”precision.
You will have the option to select from a variety of characters, each with their own distinct abilities and utilities. Additionally, a shop will be available at the beginning of each round for purchasing weapons.
