With the FPS streamer “shroud” as Lead Gameplay Advisor, Spectre Divide is gathering all the looks. Here’s how to play the stress test, and get early access to the game!
It's a trend now. Recent game releases spark comments like "oh, just like Counter-Strike" or "yeah, like Valorant!" Sometimes, people even say "sounds like Overwatch when it was called Team Fortress." With the upcoming stress test, Spectre Divide is looking to be the next game people compare other games to.
The new competitive shooter features a special ingredient they call "Duality mechanic". When playing Spectre Divide, players will control two units they can equip with different weapons. Thus, snipers can protect themselves with a second unit covering other corners.
You can scout with one unit, and secure kills with the other one; and so on. However, both units can't coexist at the same time (it would be impossible to play). If you lose one, you still have a second chance with your other unit.
