Empulse

Empulse is a 6v6 movement shooter set in the post-utopian streets of Freehold. You chain movement abilities into attacks, fight for your Crew and compete to control mechs that appear mid-round.

Movement across Freehold

The districts are built for linking movement mechanics together. You can run forwards or backwards along almost any vertical surface, grapple to build momentum, swing around cover or pull an enemy in for a one-hit melee. Holojumps and jetpacks let you launch from boost pads to keep moving.

P.A.I.N.T. Bombs reshape surfaces to create an advantage in fights. Their types are Jump, Speed, Explosive, Heal and Sticky, letting you combine them with wall-runs, grapple swings and slides.

Fight for mechs

Two mechs spawn at the centre of the map at a time, creating a contested objective during the match. A team that claims one gains control of a powerful machine equipped with a chaingun that ramps up the longer you fire, rockets that hit anyone caught in sight, and a melee attack that deals heavy damage and knocks enemies back.

The mech can also deploy a bubble shield to hold a position or provide cover, charge-jump high before slamming down with a shockwave that crushes anyone underneath, and dash to reposition at speed.
