In an alternate timeline for the history of the Earth, a pact was reached in the early 21st century that required all countries to destroy their nuclear arsenals voluntarily. This brought an end to wars between nations on a global scale. However, the era of imagined international peace is undermined by the persistent attacks by a new terrorist organization known as “Heaven Smile.” This group, which targets the United Nations and the International Ethics Committee (IEC), comprises human mutants under the influence of a virus that is fatal to humans. In the meantime, the relationship between the United States and Japan continues to deteriorate as Japan comes under the rule of a party that advocates cutting ties with the United States of America.
A man named Christopher Mills is the one who secures the services of the hit squad known as Killer7 on behalf of the United States government. Harman Smith, an older man who uses a wheelchair and goes by this name, is the leader of this organization. He is blessed with a power known as the “Multifoliate Personae Phenomenon,” which enables him to transform into seven distinct personalities. During their previous lives, each of these people worked as an assassin, and Harman absorbed their souls after they were killed in a mysterious event fifty years ago. Garcian Smith is the only one of these seven personas who can converse with Harman, making him the most important one.
Killer7 is a cross-genre video game that features elements of shooting and solving puzzles and some light role-playing. Throughout most of the game, the player is free to switch between any of the game’s seven playable characters. Each character has unique skills. Dan, for instance, is a genuine marksman, whereas Coyote is a seasoned burglar who excels in his ability to move stealthily. The odd cast also includes Kevin, who has albinism and can turn invisible; Kaede, who has ranged skills; Mask, who has the deadliest arsenal; the blind Con, who moves very quickly; Garcian, who is the leader of the pack and possesses the capacity to restore the bodies of slain personalities, and Garcian, who can revive the bodies of slain characters.
The character navigation in the game is limited, despite the presence of 3D settings; the playable characters can only go along pre-determined lines, which frequently split off in different directions. When you take out a weapon, the game shifts to a first-person perspective, allowing you to rotate the camera freely but preventing you from moving around. Utilizing various characters and weaponry, the player should most likely eliminate the incoming foe as rapidly as possible before taking any damage. “Blood” is a resource that the player obtains from defeated enemies (especially those killed with critical hits), which may be processed into serum in designated areas of the game and utilized to improve the characters’ capabilities. The player will spend a significant amount of time throughout gameplay figuring out various puzzles and acquiring information pertinent to the story via conversations with the game’s unique characters.
