Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We have no plans to adjust pricing. Our goal is to keep the pricing comparable to other games in our genre.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We believe transparency with the community is crucial in the success of any game during a development cycle. We will invite players to beta test our new levels, game modes and monitor them before we roll it out to the broader group. We currently post dev diaries, updates to help in this process. Our community and development team will have open communication via forums to discuss whats working or if we need to make adjustments.”

Reviews

“It’s still early in development but The Misfits is already doing a lot of things right. The comic book visuals give the game a lot of personality and there’s a lot to be said for it’s streamlined take on the arena shooter in a market full of bloated, impenetrable messes. If you want to fiddle about with loot boxes, perks and weapon attachments play Call of Duty, but if you want an arena shooter that focuses on what really matters come join The Misfits.”

About This Game

The Misfits "It’s all about the cash!"

The fast paced third-person arena shooter is back with a vengeance! Headshots, 360 no-scopes, jumping parkour, explosions and thousands in stolen bags of cash...

Overview
The Misfits is a fast paced stylized third-person arena shooter with one objective in mind... Kill or be Killed, so you can steal all the cash and take it to the bank.

Take cover, sprint, crouch, jump, slide or boost your way into position to eliminate players during the day/night cycle. You can shoot your opponents in our team based game modes, or if ADS isn’t your strong suit, just run around picking up cash to help your team win on our objective based game modes.
