Multiplayer gamers have a plethora of game modes and types to choose from when it comes to online shooters; Call of Duty’s Search and Destroy, Battlefield’s Conquest, and Halo’s Headhunter are just a small sampling of the myriad choices.

That means taking out all witnesses and victims of the viral outbreak and recovering the G-Virus before it gets into the ‘wrong’ hands. Basically you play as evil badasses.

Each character (or class) has their own ability and class-specific melee kills. This makes working as a team imperative and gives it some more replay time as you’ll want to try out each of them. For instance, Vector acts as the ninja component of the game with extremely silent footsteps and a motion detector, while Bertha is the team medic and can carry more than one first aid spray at a time.
