Gun play
Most of the gameplay is pretty simple to grasp and anyone that has played an FPS before will easily find their mouse and keyboard controls in familiar territory. The controls can be configured to however you want them as you would expect and the engine will recommend what it thinks are the best graphical settings for your PC. All of the other basic options that we've come to see in an FPS are here, including the ability to set subtitles or adjust your difficulty.

Emergence makes use of a difficulty scaling system, meaning that depending on how well you do, you'll either find some of the fights easier or a lot more challenging. In my playthrough, the title started off pretty easy and then became progressively more difficult especially towards the end when it suddenly spiked and I found myself being turned into a lead sponge. However, I'm not sure of whether or not it was due to the difficulty scaling or more because of the mix of foes that were now in my way.
