Former FPS pro Shroud says Highguard's "vision is there," but tech problems are holding the fantasy shooter back: "Gameplay is really good, it's just poor performance"

Three Highguard characters strike dramatic poses heading into battle.

The fantasy FPS Highguard is here, and after closing out The Game Awards last year then going a little quiet on the marketing front, it debuted to 97,000 players on Steam.
