What is Spectre Divide?
Spectre Divideis an upcoming 3v3tactical shooter game.
According to the games Steam description, the game plans to evolve the genre.

Story
Spectre Divides story is still a bit sketchy.
Steam barely goes deep into the plot you could expect in the final game.
However, the trailer does reveal the time setting will be in the year 2100.
Characters and environments will appear like hand-drawn designs of the concept sketch.
From the trailer, the art style stans with vibrant color palettes and intricately designed maps.
Gameplay
The standout gameplay feature is duality.
Controlling two characters at the same time sounds strange, but the game makes it work.
Youll have a main character and a second one called a Spectre.
While you control your main character on the battlefield, you might switch to the Spectre at any time.
Youll often need to swap between characters when enemies are approaching your Spectre.
Alternatively, you’ve got the option to tactfully use your Spectre to cover multiple locations.
Further, when you die, you might still remain on the battlefield using your Spectre.
That way, you have two lives to give you more time to win the game.
Here are the key features you’re free to expect in the final game.
