BattleBit Remastered has been rocketing up the Steam charts and I've been noticing more and more websites, YouTubers, and gamers talking about it... putting it square centre into my attention. BattleBit Remastered is a huge 254-player FPS that blends the best of Battlefield with huge fights and distractibility, with Minecraft-style low-poly graphics, meaning it runs on a MASSIVE range of Gaming PC configurations.
You wouldn't know it, but BattleBit Remastered was created by just 3 developers, with the game released in Early Access form a few weeks ago and now making it more into the mainstream spotlight. It is currently the #2 top-seller on the Steam Charts with an all-time peak player count of 87,323.
BattleBit Remastered has incredible destruction including collapsable buildings, gigantic maps for its 127 vs. 127 player matches, a bunch of kick-ass weapons, an entire day and night cycle, and a fun open mic system that amplifies the immersion during gameplay. BattleBit Remastered has proximity voice chat that highlights a speaker's name in blue if the teammate is talking, and red if it's an enemy player. This allows players to use voice chat in real-time without pressing buttons, for maximum realism. It also makes for great video content with the right players putting on a personality, better playing the part of a soldier.
BattleBit Remastered costs just $23 on Steam and provides a healthy amount of content for the money, compared to some larger AAA titles out there. The game is launching with 17 maps, 8 game modes, 39 weapons, 200 prestige ranks, 13 vehicles, and additional content. Meanwhile, microtransactions were only mentioned in a single weapons pack Post-launch maps were also teased, with what looks like 5 new maps coming in the future.
The developers are promising QoL (quality-of-life) upgrades over time, new vehicles, new weapons, new game modes, new gadgets, new features and a "MilSec" mode that they tease will "upgrade teamwork to the next level".
You don't need a next-gen Gaming PC to throw yourself into BattleBit Remastered, which is another great thing the game has going for it... it's open to 10s of millions of more PC gamers on lower-spec machines. PC requirements at a minimum for BattleBit Remastered include an Intel Core i5-2310, 6GB of RAM, and a GeForce GTX 450 or better... so you can have this game on a low-end Gaming PC and be fine battling it out in those 254-player fights.
BattleBit Remastered will run across the entire family of Allied Gaming PCs, starting with our Ready to Ship Stinger packing an AMD Ryzen 5 5500, 16GB of RAM, and an AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB starting from $999.
