Brave is inspired by another tactical team-based shooter, Valve’s Counterattackbut adds unique Agents, each with their own special abilities and superpowers. In 5v5 matches, players choose from one of 24 Agents as they attempt to attack and defend against an enemy team in a variety of ranked and unranked modes.
