Quick Facts

  • Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (December 3); PC via Steam and Epic Games Store (available now)
  • Price: $24.99 (consoles)
  • Developer: AttritoM7 Productions
  • Console Support: Co-developed with assistance from Skymap

Originally released in Early Access on PC in 2020 before its full 1.0 launch four years later, the game brings methodical, slow-paced tactical gameplay to console audiences. Director Meheraj Maruf noted that bringing the game to PlayStation and Xbox marks a major milestone for the team since starting development.

Tactical Gameplay and Modes

Zero Hour drops players into real-life scale environments across Bangladesh, tasking teams with resource management and calculated strategies. The game supports up to 10 players in cooperative missions, alongside a solo mode featuring up to nine AI squad mates.

Competitive five-versus-five player-versus-player modes include bomb defusal, hostage rescue, and deathmatch. Matches feature a tier system and comprehensive leaderboards, with a high-stakes mechanic where players lose limited guns and gadgets upon dying.

Maps, Mechanics, and K9 Companions

The tactical shooter features over 18 diverse maps equipped with interactive elements like functional elevators, bulletproof glass, dynamic shutters, and breaker switches to control building lights. Players can choose from over 23 weapons and 18 utilities, complete with detailed rail, sight, and foregrip customization, magazine checking, and ammo repacking.

Infiltration requires careful navigation around terrorist traps and alarms using four distinct breach options: kicks, door rammings, C2 explosives, and back kicks combined with grenades. Meanwhile, dynamic suspect AI responds to incoming fire, sets sniper positions, and occasionally deploys suicide bombs.

Console players will also gain access to the K9 Attack Dog feature. Acting as a dog handler, players start with a nameable puppy in a training facility that eventually becomes available for mission deployment after successfully completing three missions.
