Obscurity: Unknown Threat

Obscurity: Unknown Threat is a sandbox shooter in which players face an enemy faction known as The Obscurity. These opponents are described as fast and stealthy melee specialists with several stances and abilities, along with technologies that allow them to turn their enemies against one another. The game offers single player missions, cooperative scenarios and online battles, with bot support available in every mode. PvP is available in both symmetrical and asymmetrical formats, and players can also set up custom sessions with a mix of bots and human players.

Bots have been built to operate across all modes, acting as opposition in single player and cooperative missions or as allies when required. Players can customise their loadouts and swap weapon attachments during a match, with the weight class of a loadout affecting how a character performs in engagements. Melee combat is included alongside gunplay, with blunt, stab, sharp and push damage types available.

The game features a gore system covering broken bones, dismemberment, wound deformation and procedurally generated gibs and limb caps; major injuries can be survived, though they reduce a character’s effectiveness. A synchronised ragdoll system allows characters to be launched by explosions, impacts, throws and falls, knock over other characters, and get back up if not too badly hurt. Each map has a dynamic time of day and weather system, including fog, rain, storms and overcast conditions, with battles able to run from dusk through to dawn.
