This game mode brings Espire 2 into your own home. Sneak past Ophis in a series of training operations and prove you have what it takes to be an Espire Operator.Espire MR Missions is a series of stealth missions that grow to your playspace; be it a small room or a whole floor of your house! Guards hide behind desks, tripmines move along walls, weapons and items sit on benches and shelves and large virtual ‘roller doors’ sit on your real worlds - revealing a virtual world beyond. Each of the 16 MR Mini Missions & 8 MR Large Operations are procedurally generated to fit the layout of your room (or rooms), allowing for a different experience for every location you play.
