Breach & Clear

Game Overview

Breach & Clear brings realistic turn-based military tactics and unit management to the PlayStation Vita. Developed with input from real-world special operations forces, the game focuses entirely on close-quarters combat (CQB) scenarios where meticulous planning and room-clearing strategy determine success or failure.

Gameplay is structured around a two-phase loop: the Planning Phase and the Execution Phase. During the Planning Phase, time pauses, allowing players to survey the area, choose entry doors, and map out individual movement paths for all four squad members. Players can assign specific line-of-sight angles, order operatives to cover corners, throw flashbangs, or plant breaching charges. Upon pressing the Action button, the game shifts into real-time combat execution for several seconds as operatives execute their orders.

Players can select from real-world special forces units, including the US Army Rangers, Navy SEALs, Canada's JTF2, and the UK's SAS. Customization plays a major role, offering hundreds of gun combinations—ranging from rifles and shotguns to attachments like scopes, suppressors, stocks, and grips—alongside stat upgrades, specialized soldier classes (such as Medic, Breacher, and Direct Action), and tactical gear.
