The upcoming Strange Brigade is a third-person shooter that’s inspired by 1930s adventure serials and pulp novels. The game takes place in Egypt and follows the adventures of a group of British colonial Secret Service agents who must fight an evil witch queen.
The gameplay is primarily cooperative and there are a variety of puzzles to solve throughout the game. There are also a number of challenges that can be completed to help players uncover valuable treasures and items.
Locations
In Strange Brigade, you play as one of four characters, each with their own special abilities and loadout. The game has a number of levels, each with multiple objectives and collectibles.
The game also features a few different modes, including Campaign, Horde and Score Attack. Each mode is similar in concept, allowing you to fend off waves of enemies and earn points in a time limit.
While the story is rather basic, the game does provide a number of puzzles and challenges throughout its eight missions. It also includes some light-hearted elements, which help to keep things lively.
The game’s main challenge is finding and smashing four Blue Jars (or vases), which are found in every level. These are hard to spot, and require you to shoot them in order to unlock their respective collectables.
Characters
In Egypt, the 1930’s, mummies, giant scorpions and more awoke from their tombs to rise against Seteki the Witch Queen. Only one troop of daring heroes can stand against her fearsome power – The Strange Brigade!
Explore remarkable ruins, solve perilous puzzles and uncover tantalising treasure while blasting your way through an array of undead enemies in frantic third-person action that will bring out the adventurer within. In Strange Brigade, up to four players work together in online co-op armed with a plethora of weapons and special abilities.

Weapons
Strange Brigade Backgrounds is a third-person co-operative shooter for up to four players. The game features a variety of mythological enemies that can be defeated by the player’s team.
The game is set in Egypt, and it is heavily inspired by 1930s adventure serials and pulp novels. It also imitates the style of games like Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider.
As you explore the tombs, the characters in the game are able to collect items and relics that can be used in different missions. Collecting these artefacts not only increases your overall score but also allows you to unlock more weapons and special abilities that can be used during battles.
It is a fun game and there are a lot of things to do and collect throughout the levels. The main objective in most levels is to defeat as many monsters and mummies as possible.
Items
Several thousand years have passed since Seteki’s tomb was opened and her spirit was released into the world. Now, she has risen again and wants to destroy humanity by opening a bridge between the mortal realm and the underworld.
The only hope for humanity is a group of daring heroes — the Strange Brigade — who are about to embark on an epic journey across Egypt. They’re seasoned in defending the British Empire against supernatural threats and have been sent on this mission to foil Seteki’s plans.
Each member of the Strange Brigade is equipped with a powerful amulet, which is charged when they run through “soul” traces left by enemies. These amulets also come with a variety of special moves, including a “creeping death” move that slinks along the ground and seeks out enemy enemies for destruction.
