About the story
The first campaign follows a team of Global Risk Soldiers in the country of Azkharzia who are sent in to find and kill Black List officer Alexander Steiner. The Global Risk team is led by Major Cavanaugh and consists of Captain Hall, Specialist Randall, and Private First Class Moralez. The team assault an abandoned hotel where Steiner is supposedly staying but soon find out they've instead killed Steiner's body double. Although the team manage to fight their way out of the hotel, Cavanaugh and Hall deduce that they were set up as Black List was well prepared for their arrival. Cavanaugh is shot shortly afterwards and Hall is knocked unconscious by an unseen assailant. While unconscious, Hall has an unsettling vision of being in his own house through the eyes of someone else. Hall is soon reawakened by Moralez and takes command of the team.

Worth Playing
By Cody MedellinCrossfireX is a mess. If you manage to connect to a server and can deal with a menu that becomes sluggish after every game, you'll find an experience that is dulled by bad design decisions. From a pair of lackluster campaigns to a pittance of maps and modes, there's not much to work with. Combined with tiny maps and shooting mechanics that don't feel good, the shooter is only appealing if you only play free-to-play titles, only care for modern military shooters, don't care for Call of Duty: Warzone, and don't have the Xbox Game Pass.
Impulsegamer
ByThe campaign is a disappointing miss from the insanely talented team at Remedy and the multiplayer is too focused on making the past look prettier without revamping the outdated gameplay. This could have been a great addition to Xbox Game Pass family to get FPS fans excited for something different from the new norm, but it ends up feeling like an uninspired version of all the games we're already too familiar with. While trying to please more people with its variety of modes, it feels like there is a severe lack of identity here. It makes for an ultimately disappointing experience and one that's tough to figure out just who this game was made for.

By Alessandro BruniCrossfireX makes its debut in the Xbox ecosystem with a playful and narrative structure full of criticalities and shortcomings, which end up affecting the compressive enjoyment of a proposal as generic as it is dated.

By Terrence JohnsonAs for me, I’ll give this a few patches and come back and see if the game has improved because right now, I most assuredly did not get caught up in CrossfireX.
Generación Xbox
By AlexisCrossfireX is a game... complicated. Its campaign on the one hand is entertaining, although generic and unoriginal (adding 2 or 3 high-end cars, it could be passed off as part of the Fast & Furious saga), in addition to its multiplayer although it lends itself to some entertaining moments, it has a clear lack of content, an artistic design that perhaps is not ugly, but that is inferior to the work that Remedy is accustomed to and a gameplay that pales in comparison to other exponents of the genre.
