The game brilliantly introduces 'showdown mode', allowing you to pause time (Yes, you heard that right) and plan your multi-character mayhem. It's tactical, engaging, and allows you to create the ultimate 'I'm-a-genius' moment with a single push of a button!

With a mix of colorful characters and stunning backdrops, the graphics have their moments that will make you forget you're about to be ambushed by renegades. The game looks great on PS4, though it may not hold the awe of a next-gen title. But guess what? Sometimes good ol' graphics are all you need, like a trusty six-shooter!
