What does the gameplay of Ready or Not look like? Even though the game is a shooter, you should focus more on tactical approaches. The goal is primarily to apprehend criminals; blunt force won’t help you.
You have various ways to approach the situation: sneaking, yelling at opponents until they drop their weapon, or using gadgets that are non-lethal.
The game emphasizes a realistic setting, which is why it implements “the penetration of bullets and ricochets, Kevlar and plate dynamics, and the spread and impact of projectiles” (via Steam).
In the game, 60 different items are available for missions. From various optics, muzzle modifications, magazines to items such as shields or ladders.
There is also a coop mode where you can play with your friends online.
