Overview
LawBreakers was a first-person shooter video game developed by Boss Key Productions and published by Nexon. It was released worldwide on August 8, 2017, for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4. Physical copies were distributed by Limited Run Games. LawBreakers attempted to expand on the traditional FPS approach by introducing low gravity gameplay and followed the character selection mechanics that are popular in other objective based FPS games.
Despite positive critical reception, LawBreakers sold poorly, leading to the game's servers being shut off on September 14, 2018.
Gameplay
Two teams of five players competed against each other to complete the objective of the match, with one side playing as "Law" and the other side playing as the "Breakers". Though each faction featured its own character roster, each Role in the game featured a unique set of weapons, equipment, and playstyle, all of which were the same for each Role in both teams. The gameplay modes included the following:
Overcharge
A modified capture-the-flag mode with one flag planted in the middle of the map in the form of a battery. Teams raced to grab the battery and then take it back to their base, after which the team with the battery had to defend it until it reached 100%, and then a further 20 seconds, to earn a point. However, the battery kept its charge even after it was stolen, so one team could charge the battery to 99% complete, then the enemy could steal it and take the point after successfully defending the battery at 100% charge. The first team to score three points would be the winners.
