从 2016 年到 2018 年，游戏领域的团队英雄射击游戏有所增加，其中《守望先锋》、《为战而生》和《不法之徒》等游戏最为引人注目。 《不法之徒》早已不复存在，但一个非官方粉丝项目旨在复兴它，使其六年来首次可以玩。

《不法之徒》由《战争机器》首席设计师 Cliff Bleszinski 的工作室 Boss Key Productions 开发，是一款以未来反重力景观为背景的 5v5 英雄第一人称射击游戏。尽管做出了承诺，《不法之徒》的服务器在 2018 年推出一年后就被关闭了。


当时，Boss Key Productions 的开发团队发表了一份声明，称《不法之徒》“未能找到足够的观众来筹集必要的资金，以使其按照我们最初计划和预期的方式持续下去。” 2018 年 5 月，Bleszinski 宣布，在其大逃杀游戏《Radical Heights》发布后，Boss Key“实际上已不再存在” 。

今天，布莱辛斯基在他的官方 X/Twitter 帐户上宣布，由于一个名为 RELB 的非官方粉丝项目，《不法之徒》即将卷土重来。他接着鼓励玩家加入 RELB Discord 服务器来参加即将举行的公开测试。根据ResetEra 上的帖子，RELB 启动器可以让玩家通过 Steam 启动 LawBreakers 并进行在线多人比赛。自 4 月 13 日以来，RELB 已在欧盟、美国东部和美国西部地区的工作服务器上进行了几次压力测试，但在匹配和命中注册方面存在一些棘手的问题。


RELB 管理员 Red 在 Discord 的新闻频道中写道：“尽管在压力测试期间出现了所有问题，我们的主要目标是看看我们的整个后端是否可以处理大量玩家，并且表现良好。” “非常感谢团队中帮助实现这一目标的每个人，当然还有托管服务器的人员。我们对这个项目的未来感到非常兴奋，希望其他人也如此！”

在我们的评论中，我们说：“《不法之徒》是一款快节奏的射击游戏，拥有极高的技能上限，但偶尔也会有令人沮丧的牵线搭桥。”

Gaming saw a rise in team-based hero shooters from 2016 through 2018, with games like Overwatch, Battleborn, and LawBreakers as notable standouts. Lawbreakers is long gone, but an unofficial fan project aims to revive it, making it playable for the first time in six years.

LawBreakers, developed by Gears of War lead designer Cliff Bleszinski's studio Boss Key Productions, was a 5v5 hero-based first-person shooter set in a futuristic anti-gravity landscape. Despite its promise, LawBreakers’ servers were shut down a year after its launch in 2018.


At the time, Boss Key Productions' development team released a statement saying LawBreakers "failed to find enough of an audience to generate the funds necessary to keep it sustained in the manner we had originally planned for and anticipated." In May 2018, Bleszinski announced Boss Key was “effectively no more” following the release of its battle royale game, Radical Heights.

Today, Bleszinski announced on his official X/Twitter account that LawBreakers is on the eve of a comeback thanks to an unofficial fan project called RELB. He went on to encourage players to join an upcoming public test by joining the RELB Discord server. According to a thread on ResetEra, the RELB launcher lets players boot up LawBreakers via Steam and play online multiplayer matches. Since April 13, RELB has hosted a couple of stress tests with working servers in the EU, US-EAST, and US-WEST regions with a niggling issues with matchmaking and hit registration.


"Even with all the issues seen during the stress-test our primary goal was to see if our whole backend could handle a large amount of players and it's held up beautifully," RELB admin Red wrote in the Discord's news channel. "Massive thanks to everyone in the team who helped make this happen and of course to the people who hosted servers. We're really excited about the future of this project and we hope everyone else is as well!"

In our review, we said, "LawBreakers is a fast-paced shooter with a sky high skill cap and an occasionally frustrating matchmaker."
