There's another multiplayer PvP shooter from a big company out in the world. If is any indication, that means we're supposed to drop what we're doing, pay attention to every streamer playing it, and abandon those dusty old shooters (sorry, Overwatch). The new shooter in question is Amazon Games' Crucible.
Not to be confused with Destiny's Crucible, Amazon's effort is a team-based hero shooter where players work both against another team and the environment itself to collect something called Essence๊. Most importantly, it's free to play. It's getting mixed reviews so far, but enough positive reaction to merit at least one night with the free download.
So how does one get in on the Crucible𝓀 fun? It's PC-only, so visit to download it. The recommended specs are below.
If one happens to get addicted to Crucible, then they can purchase a Founder's Pack to reward the devs for their hard work and get an epic skin out of the deal. There are currently three Founder's Packs available through Steam. They cost $14.99, $24.99, and $49.99. The more costly packs offer extra currency as well as the ability to instantly unlock levels in Crucible's battle pass.
Crucible may or may not be the new hottest thing in gaming, b꧅ut it's at least worth a download if you like multiplayer shooters.
