Valve’s MOBA shooter Deadlock<\/em> isn’t the only game capturing attention on PC this week, with thousands of players piling into Spectre Divide<\/em>‘s early access. The shooter, developed by Mountaintop Games in partnership with Shroud, is looking to freshen up the FPS genre\u2014and isn’t holding back early.<\/p>
A little over 10,000 players hit the Spectre Divide<\/a><\/em> servers today alone, according to stats site SteamDB<\/a>; the highest count since 15,979 graced the first playtest two weeks ago. The player base fluctuates heavily, but early signs are great for the new shooter<\/a> and with the weekend approaching, we’re likely going to see that 15,000-mark broken again very soon.<\/p>

Shroud is among a group of former esports pros and streamers who had a hand in Spectre Divide<\/em>‘s making, with the likes of Tarik, iiTzTimmy, and Cohh Carnage also involved. Mountaintop is looking to revolutionize the FPS genre, differentiating itself from the likes of CS2<\/a><\/em>, VALORANT<\/a><\/em>, and Call of Duty<\/a><\/em> with a new mechanic titled Duality.<\/p>
More players are being added to the beta<\/a> by the day, with this early access expected to wrap up around Aug. 22, so there’s about a week left to give the new Duality mechanic a go and get your hands on Spectre Divide<\/em> in its current form.<\/p>
