Breach is a team-based first-person shooter multiplayer video game, developed by Atomic Games and was released for Windows PCs and the Xbox 360. Breach was distributed online for the Xbox 360 by Xbox Live Arcade, and on Windows by Steam.[2] It features dynamic destructible environments[3] and a cover system.[4]
When released, the game featured five maps. Atomic Games said that another free map would be released once the Breach community reached certain goals.[5] There are four game modes: Infiltration, Convoy, Retrieval and Team Deathmatch.[6] The game features five classes: Sniper, Gunner, Support and Rifleman are available to all players, with a Recon class being unlockable after players have "mastered" two of the four original classes.[7] Breach has an XP system that allows players to purchase gadgets, such as bionic ears and remote motion sensors.[8] Perks are also available to allow class customization.[8] The game supports multiplayer matches of up to 16 people.[5]
In Breach, players take the role of the CIA's Special Activities Division, an organisation that carries out black ops for the US government.[9]
As of August 2011, the PC version has been removed from the Steam Store, due to lack of servers to play on and Atomic Games having seemingly gone dark.
