Fairgames Has An Extraction Shooter Mode As Marathon Struggles
"The mode is reportedly called 'Cargo Heist' and functions like a round of Bungie's Marathon where players load into a map and complete objectives for an active contract while contesting extraction zones to escape with their loot."
"Break In - Find a vault code to gain access to the safe. Collect cash, upgrade your skillset, and make your play. Drill - The vault is breached. Be the team to grab the cargo, or set up your strategy to intercept it."
"Comparisons to extraction shooters, an increasingly bloated genre, will only raise concerns about Fairgames' viability as Marathon struggles to gain popularity and Sony seemingly bails on the rest of its live-service ambitions."
Fairgames, a multiplayer heist shooter, introduces a mode named 'Cargo Heist' where players complete objectives and contest extraction zones. The gameplay involves breaking into a vault, collecting cargo, and extracting it to a designated site. The game has faced scrutiny due to comparisons with other extraction shooters and concerns about its viability in a saturated market. Despite these challenges, Fairgames remains in development, with its studio, Haven, navigating recent industry cost-cutting measures and delays.
