Takedown: Red Saber allows the player to become the commander of a special forces squad. There is no storyline in the game; instead, there is a set of various missions. The main character will have to rely not on first aid kits and cartridges, but on his own intelligence. The main component of a successful passage is strategy. So, the protagonist goes on an operation with his battle group. Among the opponents there are many criminals: cartels, terrorists, bandits, mafia and so on. The received tasks will take the player to different points around the world, including a merchant ship, an estate with bandits, an underground warehouse and much more. Combat tactics should be adapted to the appropriate location, cover and escape routes should be analyzed.

The gameplay will appeal to players who don't like to rush. Here, to complete the mission, you will need a lot of preparation time. When hit by a bullet, the character will not be able to catch his breath in cover or use one of the many first aid kits, here this will seriously affect his combat effectiveness. It is also worth thinking about weapons, of which there are a large variety in the game: pistols, machine guns, rifles, grenades, and the like. However, the shot will create a noise that will attract the attention of enemies. One of the options for solving this problem would be the secrecy and efficiency inherent in special forces. In addition to the game character, you will also have to think about other members of the squad, about their health and equipment. You can play the game alone, in co-op with friends or with random participants online.
