A well-equipped gunslinger slaying monstrosities with deadly style
To reach his goal, Jesse will explore every corner of the Wild West, looking for new Institute members and valuable leads on the conspiracy, taking money from abandoned chests and corpses and growing his arsenal of weapons all the while. Armed with both old-fashioned firearms and advanced technology such as the lightning-fuelled Rentier Gauntlet, combine Jesse’s weapons and tools to your liking, each of them coming with its own skill tree for customized upgrades. Then take part in explosive combat encounters with your own mix of powerful ranged attacks and devastating melee combos.
