Arena Breakout is currently open for global testing for Android users from November 18, 2022.
Arena Breakout is Tencent’s latest product developed with a global version, a game that exploits the survival shooter genre with many novelties in gameplay and mechanics. The game has received a lot of positive reviews from Chinese players and is now officially open for global testing in the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand. Game4V will evaluate the game in detail through the article below.
Plot
Similar to the version for the Chinese market, Arena Breakout in this global version also does not build a separate storyline. In-game cutscenes and dialogue often just introduce the features and guide the player to the mechanics and gameplay of the game.
Graphics
It’s a pity that the graphics quality of Arena Breakout in this test is not really as expected. The game still has limitations in image extraction, the landscape is still quite lacking in detail and contrast.
At the beginning of the game, players will be provided by Arena Breakout with a shaping system for their own character. However, this system is quite limited in options when it only includes face, hairstyle and hair color. The types of guns and ammunition in the game are both diverse but also easy to distinguish with detailed and accurate shaping when compared to real life.
For the current beta, the game will have five competitive maps with ‘farm’ being the first map, the other maps will open according to the person’s level. However, the competition map is also very large, divided into many areas with diverse types of terrain and architectural works. It’s quite unfortunate that this is also a limited part of the game, although the highest configuration has been set, the detail of the trees, the ground as well as of the objects is quite bad. These objects are often broken or blurred, directly affecting the player’s experience.
The visual effects, especially in the landscape array, are also the limitations of the game when the effects are quite bad, the contrast and colors are quite faded, not only do not upgrade but also drag the game down. In return, the visual effects used in combat are fire and explosion, guns are slightly better for the landscape.
Detecting the game in the first-person perspective, the movements of the characters that can be observed are quite limited, including dismantling ammo, changing guns, and using first aid equipment. All of them are realistically made and interact smoothly.
Music
Arena Breakout does a pretty good job with the game’s music including the battle sounds as well as the sounds of the voiceover, mic system. Although there is no background music, the quality of the sound in the battle is very good, high realism and also meet the requirements of listening to the player’s footsteps and gunfire.
Style play
Arena Breakout still exploits the shooting theme, but the game has made adjustments to bring a relatively unique and new gameplay. Basically, the gameplay of the game is still quite similar to traditional fps games when the focus is on gun battles coming from players but different in how to collect items after the match.
This mechanism is quite similar to the game Badlander when the player can bring the items obtained in the match to their own equipment inventory and use for the following matches, and will also lose all equipment. if you are defeated in the match. More specifically, the players in Arena Breakout will be more like a hunt when the player in addition to destroying other players can also exit the match after reaching the designated areas on the map. thing.
Arena Breakout is still a playground for players’ shooting skills when the game’s combat mechanism will pair players of the same level with each other and basic operations such as aiming, reloading, etc. There are not too many changes compared to other games of the same genre. Regarding the control mechanism, Arena Breakout allows players to freely arrange the function keys to match the player’s control style.
Features and game modes
The inventory became one of the most important features of the game as the mechanics of the game made it extremely difficult to arrange the equipment before the match as well as which items to keep and which items to sell after each match. important, can completely affect the victory in the following games. Besides, the gun inventory feature where players can upgrade their guns is also an important feature of Arena Breakout. The rest of the basic features like shops, quests, mailboxes, etc. v will also be in the game.
Arena Breakout’s game mode can be divided into three main categories including practice, normal and ranked matches. These modes also include single player, party (up to three members) options and the option of either ‘scene’ and ‘robbery’.
summary
The first advantage of Arena Breakout is that the game has brought a unique and interesting survival shooting experience while still maintaining the features and combat mechanics of a traditional fps game. At the same time, the overall quality of the game’s sound and graphics are high, ensuring a great experience for players.
However, even in this test version, Arena Breakout has also partly revealed the limitations of the game. The first is that the game has graphics as well as detail, the visual effects of the landscape are quite bad even at the highest graphics setting. The second is that the game is heavy and the configuration is high, making it relatively difficult to access the game and play smoothly.
Finally, about the gameplay, this is a controversial game when instead of experiencing killing all enemies like normal fps games, the game opens up a separate way and somewhat loses its competitiveness. paintings of the genre of survival shooting. Hopefully the game will improve in the next versions.
