First-person-shooter and MOBA mashup Dfuse is picking up the pace towards launch with a closed alpha on Steam that kicks off in October.
As part of the Future Games Show at Gamescom Presented by Sid Meier's Civilization® VII, developer AEY Studios shows off a new trailer giving a sense of what the moment-to-moment gameplay feels like. A five-on-five FPS with plenty of CS:GO vibes, you see plenty of coordination around maps, peak shots, and the odd grenade. Most familiarly, we see one time arm a bomb, which I'm sure is of great interest to the other team.

Digging into Dfuse a little further, the developer teases we're getting the "fast-paced intensity of an FPS" mixed with the "strategic depth of a MOBA." You're given the option of winning each round by playing the objective of planting or dismantling a bomb or by going for a team wipe. Familiar with CS:GO fans everywhere, you'll also adapt on the fly as you customize your arsenal each round and tweak weapons, tools, and utilities. You'll also be glad to know there's no time for AFK teammates, either, as you can vote to kick them out and replace them with a fresh recruit.
You can also pledge your allegiance to one of Dfuse's factions to battle alongside comrades and unlock exclusive rewards, contracts, chests, and more. If you're feeling extra spicy, you place a bounty on a rival and reap the rewards or face the consequences.
Dfuse comes to Steam in closed beta in October.
