Highguard, the latest free-to-play shooter from Wildlight Entertainment, has made a significant splash on its launch day, attracting nearly 100,000 concurrent players on Steam. However, this impressive player count is overshadowed by a staggering 13,000 negative reviews, revealing a divided reception among gamers. The game’s expansive map size has been a particular point of contention, with many players feeling it doesn’t suit the 3vs3 matchups. Despite the mixed reviews, the game’s debut at The Game Awards generated substantial buzz, especially as it was the final announcement of the event.
