Mountaintop Studios is labelling its new tactical shooter Spectre Divide “genre-evolving.” And while the jury’s still out as to whether this new title will shake up the tac-shooter scene, one thing is sure: The way it approaches abilities is unlike any other.

There are no classes or heroes in Spectre Divide. Instead, players will have the ability to select a Sponsor prior to every match. These Sponsors resemble companies or factions and each come with three different abilities you can activate during a round. Many Sponsors have a clearly defined role; e.g., Bloom Technologies has support abilities like a barrier and a heal.
