The road to launch is nearing its end with the release of Firewall Ultra almost upon us! On August 24 players will be able to dive into the incredible new world we’ve created for the first time. We can’t wait to see everyone in-game practicing their aim at the shooting range, battling it out with other Contractors online, and crafting their ideal loadout at the weapon bench. Firewall Ultra is a dense game and we think you’re going to love finally getting to dig into what we’ve got in store.
And to really show you what we’ve been cooking, check out our brand-new launch trailer to see highlights from a variety of maps, our launch contractors, and both PvP and PvE game modes.
If you played the first game in the franchise, Firewall Zero Hour, you might recognize some of those locations. Since Firewall Ultra takes place in the same universe as the previous game, albeit five years later (both literally and in-game), the world has seen some changes. The interior layout for the Office map is renovated and ransacked, and you’ll find some new tunnels and pathways in the iconic Bunker location. You’ll also see other maps in-game have evolved.
In total, there will be 8 different maps in Firewall Ultra at launch, each of which is fully playable in both our popular intense 4v4 PvP mode, Contracts, as well as our newly revealed 4-player co-op PvE mode, Exfil. You can read more about that new mode here. Since Firewall Ultra is designed to be as dynamic as possible, things like objectives and spawn points for AI enemies will shift and change each time in the PvE mode so it’s always fresh and exciting.
Perhaps most interesting though is that we’re showing off the first look at a brand-new map for Firewall Ultra in the launch trailer:
