About-
In Crossfire: Sierra Squad, you are the leader of an elite paramilitary fireteam within the Global Risk organization facing an unexpected skirmish with the rival Black List organization. Battle a variety of crafty enemies in a relentless search for the truth, and prove why you were selected as the intrepid leader of the most feared special unit in existence – Sierra Squad!
When you drop into the action, you’ll experience all the high-quality characters, maps, and movement that Crossfire fans have become accustomed to, now in VR. Fierce paramilitary action between rival factions Black List and Global Risk in a variety of indoor and outdoor environments through 50 squad missions (single-player or 2-player co-op), 13 campaign missions (single-player) and Horde Mode (up to 4-player co-op) will keep you riveted.
39 types of weapons including pistols, rifles, throwable – and throwback-able – grenades, and sniper rifles with revolutionary scope mechanics give you plenty of options to dispatch 17 types of enemies. You’ll also engage with heavy artillery like helicopters and LAVs in full 360° VR space, so be sure to keep your head on a swivel.
Clearing the enemies out won’t be easy. But if you need help, recruit up to 3 other friends and jump into large-scale co-op play!
