Game Overview
A medieval/modern open world game where you and a team are trying to track down and defeat the creator of the outbreak to open the portal back to the real world. You go on missions either by yourself, or with a teammate or two to gather information about the creator (kind of like the bo5 campaign.) and sometimes you have to use portals to travel between the medieval and modern universes for these missions. That's a rundown of the base story line. Some other cool things we'll have is the ability to go on side missions with people and build relationships, you can build unique, unbuyable weapons that range in rarity and all their own unique way of killing things, and some other cool mechanics.
