If you're unfamiliar with the asymmetrical survival-horror genre, it's something that has picked up steam over the past few years thanks to the expansion of streamers. These games -- which included titles like Dead by Daylight, Friday the 13th: The Game, and Last Year: The Nightmare -- require a handful of players to utilize their character's skills to escape some fortified location before time runs out.
In addition to the co-op team, there is one other player who controls the villain of the game, stalking players and gruesomely murdering them. It's a genre that has come a long way since Evolve tried and failed to kickstart it back in 2015. Project Resistance looks to be putting its own spin on the formula with the Mastermind tracking players with the use of CCTV in addition to attacking them directly through zombies or the Tyrant.
