At first glance Radical Heights feels like flailing. The team at Boss Key Productions, fresh off the failure of its hero shooter, LawBreakers, spent five months banging out a battle royale game and then tossed it to the wolves in Steam Early Access. While it’s very clear that the game isn’t finished, Radical Heights is doing some very interesting things.

Moving through Radical Heights, the environment itself looks very familiar. It’s all mid-1980s era suburban sprawl but with the color saturation cranked up to 11. While PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and H1Z1 before it were firmly post-apocalyptic, Radical Heights skews more towards Fortnite with a casual, almost playful tone.
