Unlike most traditional RPGs, Duality has three separate characters which you gain control of at different parts of the game. The well equipped characters at that, seeing how they live in a persistently cruel and vicious world where technology is exploited allowing greedy corporations to prosper at the disposal of the citizens. These three individuals will all be burdened with a heavy task on their shoulders. But with their skills, and equipment, they can handle just about any obstacle that gets in their way within the real world, or the virtual world. Welcome to Duality.

Duality sets you in the shoes of three unique characters, free for you to control. The Mercenary, Hack and Virtual Being. The Mercenary is a coldhearted killer, only caring about how much cash the next kill will bring in for him. He is cunning and seems to be able to deal with situations stealthily or otherwise. His arsenal of toys is impressive as well, seeing how he is equipped with firearms, sensors, optic camouflage, hammers, different armor types etc. Phantagram Interactive hints that the way the Mercenary plays is much like the way Metal Gear Solid plays for the PlayStation 2, meaning stealth and intelligence is required, along with a good sense of reaction.
