Overview and Gameplay
Syndicate puts the player in charge of a cyberpunk corporation fighting for control of 50 territories. From headquarters, you choose missions, equip cyborg agents, fund research, modify bodies, manage taxes, and expand into neighboring regions.
Controls And Mechanics
- Missions use direct isometric agent control rather than the original computer version’s mouse interface.
- Agents can fire weapons, enter vehicles, change equipment, pick up items, and operate as individuals or as a group.
- API levels, panic mode, research, cybernetic upgrades, and passcodes shape long-term progress.
- Multiplayer supports cooperative play, with a versus option for agents fighting each other.
