Amber Battle Royale is a new BR game on Steam, that released in December 2022 and claims to be the next generation of Battle Royale Games. A fellow Reviewer called it "Scuffed Fortnite" and that seems much more appropriate.
Amber Battle Royale isn't terrible at anything, it sadly isn't really good at anything either. Visuals are okay, Gunplay is okay, Movement is okay. There are definitely much worse BR games out there, but I could also easily name you 50 better ones. Amber Battle Royale has a Jetpack (hardly a unique aspect), but it at least works well and could potentially make fights a bit more interesting.
The self-proclaimed 200 player BR is also suffering from a massive playerbase issue. At the peak the game had 8 concurrent players, but in the last week the maximum was 3 and for the most part there are 0 players. To be fair, the map is way, way, way too small for 200 players anyway. I don't even think you could realistically fit 20 on it.
If you have a couple of friends to play Amber with, you could try this out without having too much of a bad time. You could however just try one of the dozens of better BR games with your friends instead. Amber Battle Royale gets the most okay score of
5/10
Amber 2024 Update:
Amber has in an update last year added some NPCs to the original map (no real Bot opponents though). The playerbase is even deader in 2024 than it already was in 2023. Furthermore there was a second map added to the game, but it unfortunately is only an advertising place for NFTs and Crypto currencies. This is annoying and since I probably overvalued Amber a little bit in my original review, I am going to reduce the score to a 4.5/10.
