About this game
DataJack is a 2D isometric stealth action shooter originally released in 2013. In the not-too-distant future, governments have dissolved and powerful mega-corporations wage covert wars for territory and the control of information. As a freelance mercenary, you will conduct sabotage, assassinations, espionage and ambushes on their behalf to earn a living. 30+ nonlinear stealth action missions Do missions on behalf of three separate factions to earn credits.

Of course, it may be best to take a loud approach and dominate the enemy with overwhelming firepower before they have a chance to react. Destructible terrain All walls and obstacles are fully destructible, if you remembered to bring the heavy ordinance. You can open new entrances, or set up emergency exits. Just watch out if the robot chasing you is armed with a rocket launcher! 29+ weapons From submachine guns to shotguns, sniper rifles to rocket launchers, everything you need to conduct urban wetworks can be found at the local black market arms trade. Choose from an array of primary and secondary weapons and then fine-tune their stats for stealth, accuracy, or stopping power by purchasing unique weapon modifications. Round out your kit with EMP grenades, field health kits, IR sensing goggles, ninja equipment, and various other military surplus. Cybernetic upgrade system Use your credits to upgrade your arms, legs, eyes, and torso for bonuses to c…
