He is to discover that nothing is what it seems to be. Hard Reset is an action-packed, single-player shooter for the PC. With over-the-top destruction, loads of enemies, great weapon variety and a beautifully realized cyberpunk setting, Hard Reset is sure to shake up the shooter scene.
What it feels like
Action-packed shooter with loads of enemies and over-the-top destruction creates kinetic rush and flow. Dystopian setting with conflict between human enemies and atmosphere of a collapsing world suggests harsh, unflinching tone. The discovery that 'nothing is what it seems' creates an enigmatic pull and withheld truth structure.
What it's about
A beautifully realized cyberpunk setting with high-tech low-life aesthetics is explicitly highlighted as a core identity. Cyberpunk setting with robots and futuristic technology grounds the narrative in science fiction speculation. The isolated final human city under siege by multiple enemies creates an oppressive, failing society aesthetic.
How it plays
Core mechanic is aiming and firing ranged weapons with tactical feedback in a single-player shooter environment. Over-the-top destruction emphasized as a core feature suggests ragdoll and physics-based environmental interaction. Weapon variety and over-the-top destruction suggest melee options exist alongside gunplay as viable combat approaches.
How it looks and sounds
The game is presented entirely from the player character's first-person perspective, defining the visual and spatial experience. Cyberpunk setting with emphasis on visual style strongly suggests neon-lit aesthetic typical of the genre. Beautifully realized cyberpunk setting with emphasis on visual fidelity suggests high-quality realistic rendering.
How it's structured
Explicitly a single-player experience with no multiplayer component mentioned. A beautifully realized cyberpunk setting suggests deliberately authored spaces rather than procedural generation.
