Hacktag, the two-player cooperative stealth recreation the place one participant is a area agent sneaking round megacorp services and the opposite’s a hacker jacking the constructing’s datanet, is now correctly out. Hacktag caught my eye when it hit early entry final 12 months however I’d somewhat wait till it was completed, and now it’s. I’ll should spherical up a pal who fancies being an enormous anthropomorphic animal and be part of me on capers. For now, right here’s phrase that it’s out.
There are megacorps sooner or later, see, and we get to play fuzzy mercenaries (sure, you’ll be able to customise your fuzzball) breaking into buildings on company shenanigans. The agent sneaks round, dodging guards and entering into locations the hacker can’t contact just about, whereas the hacker drifts round a visualised model of the identical stage, hacking the whole lot from doorways to espresso machines to assist the agent break in and evade seize.
Both the sneaking and the hacking look pretty easy, not full-on Metal Gear Solid or Uplink, however combining the 2 in a single recreation whereas taking part in with a pal sounds good.
Hacktag focuses on cooperative play, supporting each split-screen and on-line motion. However, it does even have a Solo mode the place the participant wants to change between the 2 characters on the go, presumably additionally speaking to themself in numerous voices.
After eight months in early entry, Hacktag launched in full final week. It prices £11.61/€14.99/$14.99 on Steam proper now, which incorporates the 25% launch low cost provided till Wednesday. It’s made by Piece Of Cake Studios.
