A new, very early access, butFREEbattle royale game has been released. Now you may be cringing as I did. With H1Z1, Pubg, and Fortnite, what more can BR really offer? Turns out there is more. I've got super hooked on this disgustingly retro themed new game.
It's laid out like a big American game show (hunger games anyone?). There's cash that can be earned in matches, and what you are left with can be carried into the lobby to buy cosmetics or withdraw in a new match (which is slow, noisy and risky). There's some super unique features:
  • Cash system that can carry over to other matches (at risk), and cannot be purchased with real money

  • Square grids instead of circular, shrinking map

  • More urban areas (less hiking)

  • Unique looting caches: vending machines/spin to win/cash boxes (no, not chests, I dont know how to explain)

  • Transport: BMX bikes and zip-lines

  • Slots need to be unlocked to hold multiple weapons (no backpack)

  • Cosmetics found in game unlock cosmetics that can be bought with cash also found in matches
Now, these arent groundbreaking. But theyre super nice. There are a lot of issues with the game. When Fortnite said Early Access, its still a pretty complete game. Radical Heights is not even close. Which explains the crappy steam reviews. However, its a truly good laugh and Id tell anyone to try it! Small download and free nothing to lose!
