Rogue Company
Announced last September, Hi-Rez Studios' next game will be called Rogue Company (RoCo) and will be an online third person shooting game. You will play as a mercenary part of a top-secret organization in a world that seems to depend on them to maintain order.
Each mercenary will have his own arsenal and will be able to improve it between two rounds thanks to a shop that will allow you to buy accessories and assets. The game will be available in crossplay on all platforms as soon as it is released in 2020 on the Epic Games Store.
