The Surge

Combat centers on targeting specific limbs of enemies to cut off their armor and rare components, which the player then salvages to craft and upgrade pieces of their own exosuit.

The game uses deliberate, stamina-based melee combat with tightly patterned enemy attacks, set across interconnected facility areas filled with malfunctioning robots and augmented workers turned hostile.

Progression is tied entirely to equipment found or crafted from harvested limb parts rather than traditional experience points, which pushes the player to experiment with different limb-targeting strategies against tougher enemies.

• Limb Targeting Combat Attacks can target specific enemy limbs to harvest gear.
• Exosuit Crafting Harvested parts are used to craft and upgrade exosuit equipment.
• Interconnected Facility The facility's areas loop and connect back into each other.
• Stamina Based Combat Melee attacks and dodges are limited by a stamina meter.
