Black Beacon kicks off with a black monolith called the Beacon suddenly activating after the arrival of the Seer, a figure from ancient prophecies. Everything goes sideways. But then, anomalies start showing up around the Tower of Babel.
These anomalies are real, deep lore elements hidden in the game. The game is a mix of mythology and futuristic chaos. Your choices throughout the story echo far beyond just the next mission.
Combat in Black Beacon has a quarter-view setup. Every fight gives you a chance to mess around with combos and skill synergies. There’s a lot of customization, from unlocking different outfits to exclusive weapons.
You can build bonds with your characters too and character development plays a big role. You can strengthen your bonds with different characters through affinity systems, voice interactions and profile upgrades.
It’s Black Beacon Launch Day!
