Release Date: February 10, 2022
Continuation of one of the most popular chain shooters. This time the production offers not only multiplayer, but also a feature campaign created by Remedy Entertainment studio, known among others from Quantum Break and the first two parts of the Max Payne series.
CrossFire X is the second installment in the FPS series started back in 2007. In comparison to the original, which is a multiplayer shooter, this time players get at their disposal a game with a single player campaign, which is the result of cooperation between Smilegate (known for the first CrossFire) and Remedy Studios, known for Quantum Break and the first two installments in the Max Payne series.
CrossFire X takes players to a world in which two paramilitary organisations are fighting for influence. On the one side of the barricade there is the Global Risk faction, which brings together in its ranks former special forces soldiers, so that it can undertake dangerous missions around the world. On the other hand, there are mercenaries representing the Black List, focusing on terrorist activity. In the course of the game, players must take sides in the conflict.
In CrossFire X the action is shown from the first person perspective (FPP). The game revolves around realistic battles. The creators provide players with an extensive arsenal, which consists of machine guns and sniper rifles, pistols, melee weapons, grenades, as well as a number of gadgets useful on the battlefield.
CrossFire X offers three variants of gameplay. The first one is a story campaign - the Remedy Studios team worked on it. The second is a competitive multiplayer mode, which is based on the formula developed for the first installment of the series. The third one is the battle royale mode, where the players fight a fierce battle over who will remain on the battlefield as the last one.
CrossFire X features high-quality 3D visuals based on the Unreal Engine 4 technology.

Game Ratings for CrossfireX Video Game.
God is a Geek: 4 / 10 by Mick Fraser
CrossfireX has some interesting ideas in Remedy's dual campaigns, but everything else feels dated and generic.
Game Rant: 1 / 5 by Dalton Cooper
CrossfireX is a complete misfire with poor controls, painfully generic campaigns, and an uninspired multiplayer experience.
Impulsegamer: 2.5 / 5 by Andrew Haverty
The campaign is a disappointing miss from the insanely talented team at Remedy and the multiplayer is too focused on making the past look prettier without revamping the outdated gameplay. This could have been a great addition to Xbox Game Pass family to get FPS fans excited for something different from the new norm, but it ends up feeling like an uninspired version of all the games we're already too familiar with. While trying to please more people with its variety of modes, it feels like there is a severe lack of identity here. It makes for an ultimately disappointing experience and one that's tough to figure out just who this game was made for.
