Gameplay

The game will be a squad based shooter and the first gameplay trailer was released on April 28, 2011. You can issue commands to your squadmates either by using buttons or voice via headset.

Trust plays a part in story mode on how the squad views the player via the Consequence System, which shapes their opinion on their leader based on how the player performs in the game. The director Toshihiro Nagoshi has stated that he intends to "create the human drama in the action moments, rather than showing them one after another in cut scenes."
