Blacklight: Retribution Review: Top-flight free-to-play multiplayer shooter | PSU

PSU - Zombie takes a streamlined approach to Blacklight’s visuals by squeezing the most out of the Unreal Engine 3 on the PlayStation 4. Unfortunately, that means it doesn’t dazzle like its AAA contemporaries do. The game still sports a slick visual style, but it certainly would be more impressive if it were running at 1080p and 60 frames per second. On one hand, it is remarkable what they’ve been able to do with Unreal Engine 3 on the PS4 and I appreciate the detailed characters and weapons.

This game will please a lot to the COD players, feels like it, is fast, kills are fast and the game modes are similar with the free for all and the kill confirm

Obviously PC wasn't cuttin it, PS4 is a Juggernaut, makes sense.

That sucks

Majors1924d ago

Shut the servers down but let people host their own and keep these games active for those who want to play. Its bullshit when they kill a game completely when they could easy patch it for hosting / creating online content

Blacklight Retribution Servers & Official Support Ending in March, All Items Made Free

Hardsuit Labs has mentioned that the Blacklight Retribution servers are shutting down on March 11 for PC, though PS4 version will continue as is. All items in the PC store are now free.

Another one bites the dust.

Father__Merrin1926d ago

Remember playing this when I first got a ps4. Never good news to see games shut down I guess one day online only games can bite the dust

Sgt_Slaughter1926d ago (Edited 1926d ago )

This is why buying into these sort of games are a bad idea.

BlacKJesu51925d ago

That's like saying buying cod at 60 is bad..cause you know a new version is coming and you won't play last years

Sgt_Slaughter1925d ago

Not even slightly the same. I can still play Modern Warfare 2 because, guess what, it still works online AND it has offline modes. This applies to I think every Call of Duty game.

With Blacklight, everything you've ever purchased is gone forever after the servers are gone, and you can never play the game again.

BlacKJesu51924d ago

Is there no other f2p games.....Apex legends just came out..play the new version

masterfox1926d ago

See this is why online mp only games effing sucks and definitely will never support them. ;)

Giblet_Head1926d ago

Depending how much of a cult following it has, it could be revived by some mod team in the distant future. Similar cases have happened with games like 2142 and Star Wars Galaxies.

Yes, I see this happening if the fanbase is there, too.
