Summary
Team Jade, developer of the hit free-to-play multiplayer tactical shooterDelta Force, has finally released the full version of the game’s Black Hawk Down campaign mode. Inspired by the hit Hollywood film, theDelta ForceBlack Hawk Down campaign promises an intense cooperative shooting experience based in the Somali city of Mogadishu.
Delta Forceis proving to be a surprise hit among shooter fans looking for a different experience. In a field of multiplayer shooters dominated by speedy movement and over-the-top abilities likeCall of Duty,Fortnite, andApex Legends,Delta Forceoffers a more deliberate experiencethat prizes coordinated team tactics while still appreciating the uniqueness of its various operator characters.
Now,the biggestDelta Forceupdate yet is playable, after a delay that saw developer Team Jade make theDelta ForceBlack Hawk Down DLC freefor everyone to play.Delta ForceBlack Hawk Down is inspired by the 2001 film of the same name directed by Ridley Scott. The film itself is adapted from the story of the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu, Somalia, when United States Army Rangers and Delta Force operators engaged a massive force of Somali insurgents in the city.
Delta Force Black Hawk Down Campaign Is ‘Extremely Difficult’ to Challenge Solo
Delta ForceBlack Hawk Down exists alongside the otherDelta Forcegame modes, and consists of a series of seven distinct campaign stages. The campaign itself is designed for cooperative play in a squad of up to four, but can be challenged solo. That said, Black Hawk Down is considered to be “extremely difficult” for those who insist on a solo experience, as mission objectives and enemy settings won’t scale to the player count. In a game that already promotes a more focused shooter experience than the average, completing a solo run could prove quite the feat for many players.
Online reception to the release of the Black Hawk Down campaign was positive, with many players online praisingDelta Forcedevelopers Team Jade for making the campaign free. Others expressed appreciation for both the original movie and the earlierDelta Forcegames, relishing the chance to experience the battles rendered using Unreal Engine 5 and the latest graphical tech. Some worried aboutpotential issues with the balance of theDelta ForceBlack Hawk Down campaignwhen it comes to both realism and historical accuracy, noting that the film the campaign is based on came under fire for insensitive portrayals of the battle, particularly regarding the primarily African antagonists.
Now that the campaign is out,Delta Forceplayers and those interested in taking it up will have their chance to evaluate the experience firsthand. And if it turns out successfully, that could grow the potential audience forDelta Forceitself and help it compete in the crowded military shooter scene.
