While both campaigns are action packed and swiftly paced, they both boil down to “save your squad-mate here” or “infiltrate this research facility there.” There are glimpses of some great gameplay mechanics, like a sequence in which you switch back in forth between a squad-mate on the ground and the sniper that’s covering him, and another where you’re given a special suit granting you invisibility.
There’s something about tapping into one’s head to see the future, and then someone’s fate being the downfall of the other faction or…. Unfortunately neither one feels fully realized, featuring stories that are often confusingly explained.
While not wholly original, it’s a neat idea to have two campaigns that focus on opposite perspectives of the story. Both campaigns are interconnected with each other, following opposite factions of fictional special-op teams in a battle with each other that’s ultimately nearing war. While this sounds like a winning combination, the results are both disappointing and a bit baffling.ĬrossfireX contains two standalone single-player campaigns, both of which can be separately purchased if one so desires. A sort of original take and sort of remake of the 2007 Crossfire, CrossfireX looks to recapture the Counter-Strike style multiplayer it was once known for while also delivering a brand new campaign curated by none other than Alan Wake, Quantum Break, and Control developer Remedy Entertainment. When CrossfireX was first announced for Xbox Game Pass back in 2020, it was exciting to see a realistic first person shooter other than Call of Duty get some of the limelight.
