The 6v6 tactical shooter 'Empulse' has just dropped its demo. The game is slated for an Early Access release on 25 June.

Empulse pits two teams of six against each other in Freehold, a fictional future metropolis. You will be navigating a vertical urban jungle where wall-running and grappling hook mechanics are the order of the day. Throw in some holo-jumps and tactical grenades that reshape the environment, and you have got yourself a rather kinetic battlefield.

The real spectacle, however, is the giant mech that stomps into the centre of the map. Two of these behemoths spawn at once, armed to the teeth with heavy weaponry, guided missiles, and shields. Securing one effectively hands you the momentum, but they aren't invincible; a coordinated team or a well-placed grapple can bring them down, making for some cheeky potential turnarounds.

The special grenades are the true stars of the tactical show, fundamentally altering the terrain and your options. Whether you're using boosters to increase jump height or speed, or deploying sticky bombs and healing fields to lock down an area, the map itself becomes your most versatile weapon.

Empulse is heading into Early Access on 25 June for Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. It will feature full Korean interface support, and you can grab the demo right now during Steam Next Fest.
