Weapons and Upgrades

Within matches, players can find pick ups for different weapons like the strategic "Proximity Vector" or upgrades like "Rapid Reload".

The Meat Grinder Hub

In the Hub, you can view faction leaderboards, customize your character’s appearance, talk to NPCs, and deploy to matches. The Hub gives you a place to view things in one place while offering a glimpse into the cyberpunk aesthetic that encapsulates AlphaLink’s major deployment sector.

Customization

Players can update their appearance by unlocking new suits, gun skins, and banners. Win matches to gain XP and credits and spend them in The Hub! Try completing the Single Player experience to unlock exclusive faction-specific armor!

Controls

AlphaLink is not a twin stick shooter. The controls take on characteristics, we refer to as ‘Stop and Pop’, of similar games in the genre. The player only has three shots by default, so aiming is crucial. Holding "Aim" will put the player in an aim state and then allow them to fire. The controls are simple but take some practice to master.

Currently AlphaLink supports Xbox One controller with more controllers being added. Keyboard and mouse is currently supported as experimental features in Early Access.

What are you waiting on! Suit up soldier! We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!
