Deceive Inc. is an extraction shooter that foregoes the same old gritty shooter thematics in favor of spies, devices and vibrant locales. In our evaluation, Russel Adderson described it as “a inventive mix of sneaking and capturing that can have squads coming again for extra.” It’s properly value attempting, and there isn’t any purpose to not, as a result of it is at the moment free on the Epic Games Store.
While it is basically an extraction shooter, there are some distinctive twists. Each playable spy has their very own weapons and expertise, and there is a good number of devices starting from apparent stuff like turrets and hologram decoys by to a bouncy inflatable mat. But Deceive Inc.’s defining twist is its disguise system, which helps you to masquerade as NPCs to not solely get the leap on enemies, but in addition to entry in any other case inaccessible components of the maps.
In different phrases, it is as sneaky as it’s shooty, with a cheerful presentation and satisfying depth. The devs have supported it properly since its March 2023 launch too, with a serious November 1 replace aiming to “shake up the meta” whereas including a brand new map and two new devices.
If this sounds interesting to you however you do not do the Epic Games Store (probably since you need to play on Steam Deck, for which Deceive Inc is “verified”), Steam is providing a giant 70% low cost in the meanwhile, bringing it all the way down to $5.99.
If you are still grabbing free Epic Games Store goodies, the Apex Legends Ash Bundle is at the moment going for nothing. Next week, the Castlevania Anniversary Collection goes free from November 15.
