I love the look of this dark cyberpunk world. Throw in a soundtrack by Mick Gordon and I'm even more excited.

My only complaint is that it seems you play as a police officer. Lame. Change nothing in the game but tell me they're mercenaries and I'm all in, but I don't want to play as police in a cyberpunk world. Anyway, that's an extremely minor gripe and definitely a "me" problem, not a problem with the game. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on it.

DEFECT is a cyberpunk, squad-based immersive shooter set in a dystopian world ruled by an AI, The System. Play in Single-player for a deeper offline experience, team up in Co-op, or face off in a new 4v4v4v4 PVP mode featuring dynamic multi-objective, battles with advanced weapons and tech.

There's something about the art style and world here that reminds me of The Ascent and I absolutely loved that game.

Keeping an eye on this. Gives me Judge Dredd specifically the movie "Dredd" vibes.

Looks like a game with potential. I like the aesthetic, and the music reminds me a bit of Forever Winter. Mick Gordon is a name that carries with it a lot of respect, considering how he handled being in a drama with Doom Eternal.

To your point about being a police officer, I have a feeling that's where the title of the game comes into play? A defecting police officer sounds like quite a story!
