Although combat doesn’t seem to be the main focus when it comes to gameplay – especially when it comes to exploration – that doesn’t mean that there isn’t any intense gunfights outside of main quests. In fact, there’s always a fight for players with an itchy trigger finger to battle it out in.

The catch is that you’ll need to look for these scraps yourself.

Thankfully, they won’t be too difficult to come by should you decide to seek one out. According to IGN there's a gang fight or bounty to collect “around almost every corner” in this sprawling and dense city.

Having these combat scenarios as optional extras could offer the best of both worlds for players. Not being harassed by hordes of foes when taking downtime from main missions will allow us to see what the city has to offer whilst giving us a place to duke it out on the streets should the need arise.

While it’s still to be seen how these combat scenarios will fit into the bigger picture or how unique each will be, we can nevertheless look forward to finding out very soon.
