Our take on TimeShift™

Players may bounce off at multiplayer setup if they expect an online service with matchmaking. The game specifies LAN or direct connection for multiplayer, so groups without one of those connection methods will hit that wall before starting a match.

What is TimeShift™?

TimeShift is an action game set in an alternate reality created after Dr.

Aiden Krone makes a dangerous jump across the space-time continuum. In the rain-soaked Alpha District, the player uses the experimental Beta Suit to slow, stop, and reverse time while fighting against Krone’s uprising. The game includes 24 combat missions with a range of weapons and vehicles. Multiplayer supports up to 16 players across 14 maps, with time grenades that produce slow, stop, and reverse effects during matches. More than 40 customization options let players adjust their multiplayer experience. Multiplayer connectivity is available through LAN or direct connection.
