Many companies decide to make their game Download Only, and just recently, developer Zombie, has chosen that path of release for their upcoming game, entitle Blacklight: Tango Down.

Tim Turi, of GameInformer Magazine, recently said this about Blacklight: Tango Down:

Blacklight offers ONLY Mullti-Player in it. There is Co-Op and up to 16 player online multiplayer.

In the Single-Player, players are a member of a covert op unit in the United States government called Blacklight. You are tasked with finding a Colonel in the Blacklight division, Colonel Klien, and his personal Blacklight Team. It is reported that he has been captured by the opposing faction, The Order. The Order, is comprised of Ex-Special Forces and Local Militia who have assassinated the President.

Along the way to the location where it is thought that Colonel Klien is being held, you get a report of an unknown virus being released upon the civilian population, causing them to attack each other and anyone in sight. As fighting erupts between the Blacklight and The Order, both sides get attacked by the Civilians who have been infected by the unknown virus. Your goal still remains the same though, Find Colonel Klien, and stop The Order.

Here's a Co-Op gameplay video:

Now, onto the Multiplayer!!

Here is a Multiplayer Gameplay video:

The main unique feature to this game is called the HRV, or Hyper Reality Visor, which allows players to see through walls and see other enemy players for a limited amount of time. You cannot shoot while using the HRV though, which prevents it from being too overpowered.

Another interesting detail to Blacklight is the Digi-Grenade, which when thrown, produces a pixilated sphere that messes with the player's view.

Gun Customization is a huge thing that the Developers have iterated into the game. Players can change everything about the gun they are using, from the stock, to type of magainze, to the type of muzzle and barrel you want on your gun.

Another unique thing about Tango Down are the Weapon Attributes. There are 25 different attributes about the guns, and every part of customizing a gun has an effect on the attributes of the gun. For Instance the size of the magazine you choose will make you run faster if its smaller, and run slower if the magazine is bigger.

Here's a video explaining the Weapon Customization in greater detail:

There will be 7 different modes to choose from, including Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Capture the Flag among others.

Tango Down offers 12 maps for players to kill each other on.

The price of Tango Down will be Approximately 1200 MSP, or $15, and will be released on July 7th.

Personally, This game looks awesome! it brings a level of gun customization that reminds me of Army of Two, this gameplay that feels like MW2, and its only $15!
