About Blacklight: Retribution
✦ AI summary
Command futuristic firefights with wall-hacking HRV technology and devastating Hardsuits while customizing your loadout from over 1,000 weapon combinations. This free-to-play FPS blends tactical tech mastery with raw gunplay across multiple game modes and maps.
Take firefights to a futuristic new level in Blacklight: Retribution, a free-to-play FPS. See through walls with the HRV, deploy mechanized Hardsuits, and customize your weapons to dominate the opposition.
In Blacklight, mastering the futuristic tech is half of victory. You'll need to carefully balance your loadout, from the extreme customization possible in designing your firearms, to the equipment you carry and the in-match bonuses you can unlock. The Hyper Reality Visor (HRV) allows you to look through walls and spot enemies, and attack from where they aren't expecting - but be careful, because you're vulnerable while using it.
The other half of victory? Raw skill, same as it's always been. Good hunting, Agent...

Perfect example of why we should stop killing games.
I miss this game... such a big part of my childhood, probably one of the first entries into the FPS chanera. You will be missed Blacklight: Retribution. Truly a shame how all the memories I had with this game will fade, sure people might have had mixed feelings about you, but you'll always be the one i think back to, wanting to play again. Rest well.
I enjoyed it well enough while it was alive. Got very pay to win near the end, though.
