This is the first of several scaling tests taking place over the course of summer and leading up to an Early Access phase on Steam later in 2016. The first closed alpha test will feature the action-packed Overcharge mode, played onLawBreakers’ first map, Grandview. Turf War mode, a unique take on capture-and-hold amplified by the game’s thrilling combative moments, and the Promenade map, based on the iconic Third Street location in sunny Santa Monica, Calif, both revealed for the first time this week at E3, will be added for subsequent tests, as will other unannounced content.
LawBreakers promises a bloodbath of role-based vertical team conflict, creating endless mastery and competition across an alternate American landscape.
Players will choose whether to kill to uphold the “Law,” or go out for blood as a “Breaker,” as they take part in the combat raging across iconic locations including the boiling oceans off the Santa Monica coastline, a gravity-ravaged Grand Canyon and beyond.
Enjoy!

Characters are ripped of from Overwatch. lol
They aren’t, although developers were probably inspired by it.
Now everyone wants to repeat the Overwatch’s success and it’s a bit pathetic.
It wouldn’t probably be rather pathetic if they all had B-lizard’s developing and chiefly marketing budget to manipulate millions of children to manipulate their parents to buy them the newest cartoon shooter on the market.
I mean, the entire “We won’t invent something original on our own, let’s make our game be strongly reminiscent of that X title which was very successful” is pathetic.
As for Overwatch, I can’t really tell if it’s a quality game or rather merely a well-advertised one, because I’m not keen on this kind of games.
I suspect though, that it’s rather good technically (Blizzard is known for polishing their productions).
Sorry, I didn’t really mean optimization there, just quality of the game design, its mechanics and graphics.
LawBreakers was announced much before Overwatch. Back then it was called BlueStreak. If anything, Overwatch is like LawBreakers aimed at a younger audience.
What is this? Overwatch did the nasty with Unreal Tournament and this was the outcome? o_O
Played a few hours of the closed alpha and enjoying the game so far.
Art style is….bad.
