Burstfire

Burstfire Overview

Burstfire is a realistic, round-based tactical shooter with a buy-to-play approach, and its overall structure will feel familiar to anyone who has spent time in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Matches revolve around two teams of five, with one side tasked with attacking an objective while the other holds positions and tries to deny progress. The pace is intentionally measured, with a strong emphasis on reading the map, managing angles, and executing as a unit rather than relying on individual reflexes alone.

One notable design choice is the lack of a class system. Instead of locking roles behind characters, Burstfire uses an open loadout philosophy where players can purchase and equip weapons more freely. That gives teams flexibility to adapt from round to round, and it also means coordination and economy decisions matter as much as raw aim. The game’s presentation and tension-heavy room clearing can also bring Rainbow 6 Siege to mind, especially with defenders having tools designed to slow, punish, or redirect attackers.

Core gameplay highlights:

• Round-based elimination – once you go down, you sit out until the next round begins.
• Loadout freedom – no rigid classes, gear choices are largely up to the player.
• Attack vs. defense structure – teams swap roles, and defenders can set traps to control space.
• Built-in voice communication – integrated VoIP to support callouts and coordinated plays.
• Customization – cosmetic options plus weapon skins and attachments such as scopes.
