![About the game](http://cdn.focus-home.com/admin/common/newsletter/thegame.jpg)
Taking the original Insurgency formula and evolving it, the millions
selling FPS comes enhanced and expanded
. Insurgency: Sandstorm is built in Unreal Engine 4 with upgraded graphics, taking the series into a
new era.
Coming to PC and, for the first time, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One
; Insurgency: Sandstorm brings extended gameplay possibilities, improved
immersion, and new co-op and versus objective-based game modes. All while
retaining the lethal tactical action that made Insurgency the worldwide
phenomenon it is today.
Fight across a modern battlefield utilizing gameplay mechanics that
blur the lines between reality and shooter
- split second decisions will mean life or death for you and your team.
Each weapon has unique ballistic calculations that take into account things
like bullet drop and penetration power. Choose to drop magazines for faster
reloads in dangerous situations, carefully open doors to keep quiet, or
bash doors down with a shoulder charge, and much more.
Participate in large-scale battles in up to 16-versus-16 skirmishes
with artillery barrages, helicopter gunships, repurposed commercial drones,
air strikes, and drivable land transport vehicles. Battle across expansive
maps with interiors to breach and high-value objectives to control with
your team. Each map’s size and play areas are adjusted specifically for
each game mode and can also be played in co-op against bots.
Like its predecessor, Insurgency: Sandstorm rewards teamwork and
objective play over personal success.
Players will also finally see long awaited features such as character
customization, ranked matchmaking, and many more.
