Upgrades
Gear up for each round and personalize your firepower! Every weapon can be improved by the unique upgrade system with four key categories: sights, magazines, mounts, and barrels. Tailor your arsenal to fit your playstyle and dominate the battlefield!
Sights
Weapons will have various sights as upgrades that provide more aiming accuracy, however players will have to spend money on them and in some cases, they slow down movement.
Magazine
They expand the capacity of the given gun, with additional ammo being available for the weapon before having to reload.
Grips, Stocks, and Foregrips
At the first stages of development we are not planning to have mounts add extra weapon features such as a grenade launcher. But other mounts that provide stability for the guns will be available.
Barrels
Every barrel of each weapon can be upgraded, for example with silencers or barrels that provide advantages for the guns. Advantages include higher velocity for the bullets or the gun’s sound completely removed through a silencer.
Utilities
Complete daily missions and contracts for different factions. The more you impress them (or maybe tick them off!), the higher your rep climbs. As your rep grows, you'll unlock sick gadgets that'll give you the edge in battle.
Gear Up Beyond the Basics!
DFUSE isn't just about guns and grenades. You'll unlock a whole arsenal of game-changing utilities through the Reputation System.
Become a Tactical Genius
Equip the Motion Sensor and stay one step ahead of the enemy. Always know what's lurking around the corner and dominate the map with intel.
Go Full Aggro!
Feeling feisty? Unleash the devastating Acid Bomb, melting your opponent's armor and leaving them vulnerable. The possibilities are endless!
Maps
The game features a rotating pool of playable maps. Each map is associated with a specific resource controlled by one of the six factions (information, metal, pharmaceuticals, etc.). By participating in matches on these maps, players contribute to the resource pool of the corresponding faction.
Material Acquisition through Faction Resources
Materials, used for crafting and customization, are directly tied to the resource pools controlled by the factions.
Victories on a map grant players a larger quantity of materials compared to losing matches.
Victories essentially represent “capturing” the map’s resources for the chosen faction.
Even in defeat, players are not left empty-handed. Participation in any match rewards a base amount of materials, ensuring steady progress.
This system creates a compelling link between player actions, faction resources, and material acquisition. Players can strategically choose maps based on their desired materials or align themselves with specific factions through consistent play on their associated maps. The game can handle custom map rotation as well, if players vote for that, it is kept as an option.
Roles
DFUSE throws you into the fray with 4 distinct character roles: Assault, Defender, Recon, and Support. Each has a unique in-game name that'll be revealed soon! This system isn't about glorifying one role over another; it's about building a balanced team for maximum fun and tactical dominance. Every match needs at least one of each Agent, and each comes with specialized utilities to complete the mission.
Grab your crew, pick your roles, and get ready to outsmart the enemy with a well-oiled machine on your side!
Support
A vital teammate who keeps their allies in the fight by healing, providing buffs, and strengthening their shields. They may also have utility abilities to slow enemies or control the battlefield.
Defender
A strategic player who holds down key positions, fortifies defenses and disrupts enemy advances. They may have abilities to use shields, deploy traps, or slow enemy movement.
Recon
A highly mobile player who gathers intel on enemy positions and movements. They may have abilities to spot enemies, use recon drones, or provide strategic information to their team.
Assault
A fearless attacker who leads the charge, breaching enemy positions and taking down opponents head-on. They excel at close-quarters combat and may have grenades or other tools to clear areas.
Contract System
The contract system in our game intertwines with the faction resource system to create a deep connection between player actions, reputation building, and progression.
01
Contracts
These are player-driven quests offered by each faction. Completing them grants in-game currency, reputation with that specific faction, and progress towards unlocking unique tools or utilities associated with the faction.
02
Faction Alignment
Players choose to dedicate themselves to a single faction for a period of one week. During this time, all accepted contracts will be tied to the chosen faction. This focus allows players to gain significant reputation and unlock faction-specific rewards more quickly.
03
Neutral Players
For players who prefer a more flexible approach, the option to remain unaligned is available. These players can accept contracts from any faction without impacting their weekly alignment. They will still earn in-game currency and progress within each faction, but at a slower rate compared to aligned players.
Ecosystem - Trade & Create
Marketplace
Freely trade in-game items, skins and assets on the built-in marketplace.
Skin Generator

Map/Mod Generator

Factions
DFUSE factions offer a dynamic web of loyalties, ambitions, and rewards that shape your experience. By choosing a faction and climbing the ranks, you carve out your own unique path in this ever-shifting world. Will you rise to the top of a single power structure, or become a master manipulator, playing them all against each other?
The choice is yours.
Align or Exploit
Choose to forge alliances or exploit rivalries. Complete contracts for any faction, experiencing unique storylines and missions. Pledge allegiance later to unlock exclusive gear and etch your name in their ranks.
Style & Substance
Every faction boasts a distinct aesthetic reflected in their attire, technology, and weaponry. Goldcrest flaunts luxurious high-tech weaponry, while Underbelly thrives with ingenious, makeshift tools. This variety keeps combat fresh and allows you to choose your approach: brutal force or tactical finesse.
Ascend the Ranks
Every contract completed brings you closer to the top. Earn in-game currency and purchase chests filled with weapon skins and other customization options to personalize your arsenal. But true glory awaits the elite. Ascend the ranks to become a faction's BMF (Big Man on the Floor), earning a prestigious role and potentially leadership opportunities within the Prime Coalition.
Explore & Explode
The resources each faction controls, be it information, precious metals, or illicit substances, hint at the types of missions you'll undertake. This fuels your curiosity and encourages exploration. Dive deeper and uncover hidden agendas. You might even exploit these rivalries to your advantage, crafting tactical strategies to manipulate both factions for your own gain.
Goldcrest Families
The Goldcrest Families are the Coalition's elite, hailing from old money and dynasties. Their lives are defined by success, wealth, and opulence.
The Underbelly
Under the guidance of The Whisperer this network of agents is operating in the shadows. Disguised as society's cast-offs, they gather intel and secrets to sell to the highest bidder.
NeuraPharm
NeuraPharm's a megacorporation churning out medicine and playing the humanitarian angle. But beneath the surface, these agents stock an arsenal of poisons and acids – their true intentions are far from healthy.
DataForge Tech
Led by the enigmatic Null, their masked agents (ranked by number) prioritize intel and secrecy. They keep their true purpose hidden under a facade of telecoms and components, ensuring the Coalition's technological edge, but at what cost?
A&A Aegis Arms
Masters of metal, control factories and dominate the arms market, supplying even the government. But beneath the surface, The Wardinal leads a clandestine R&D operation, their true goals shrouded in mystery.
Weave Dynamics
Newcomers to the Coalition, Weave Dynamics rose fast via control of synthetic fibers, like kevlar, for military gear. This research-focused faction, led by the Taskmaster, operates with an iron fist, supplying the underworld and the other agents.
