What Is Bullet Echo?

Bullet Echo is a unique top-down mobile shooter game that utilizes fog of war to great effect. The mobile game promises a unique take on the battle royale genre with its interesting concept of bringing the teamwork aspect into the game. Players will need to work together in a team and outlast the other team while also contending with the dark terrain of the map.

Developed and published by ZeptoLab, Bullet Echo has one-of-a-kind visuals with the use of a top-down perspective instead of the usual first-person or third-person perspective that is commonly found in other mobile shooters. 

Find items that strengthen your hero and charge up your abilities to use them in team fights. Bullet Echo promises a rowdy good time when played with friends.

Play a Lot of Games

If you truly want to be better at the game, play more. Playing the game and learning from your mistakes is one of the best ways to improve. You get to understand how the game should be played and what each character brings to the table especially in a team game like Bullet Echo.

Apart from understanding the game, you also sharpen your skills when you play more. You understand the mechanics and your skills slowly improve. In a game like Bullet Echo where accuracy is important, improving your skills should be your topmost priority.

Some players might improve after several games but there are different types of players and it will take a lot of time for you to truly become better at the game. Take your time and learn the game by checking what went wrong with your game. 

Since there is no limit on how many games you can play, you can play games to your heart’s content until you feel like you are ready to take on a bigger challenge.

Teamwork

Teamwork is another skill that you need to learn in Bullet Echo. This mobile shooter is a team-based game and learning to play with others will help you win more games. Stick with your team to increase your chances of survival. 

If possible, play with your friends and communicate well. You will have better chances of winning when you play with your friend since you already know their play style. Coordination is essential in this game as you will have to work together to clear out the enemy on any given map.

Choose Your Hero

Many action games that involve heroes or characters tend to have their unique skills and abilities. These playable characters individually bring something to the team that cannot be found in any other heroes in the game. Choose your hero wisely and make sure that it connects well with how you want to play the game.

If you find yourself having the defensive playstyle, make sure to pick a hero that also has defensive gameplay. Those who want to go ham should pick a character that satisfies your fantasy. This way, you get to connect with your character and be good at playing the game since the hero matches your play style.

Don’t forget to upgrade your hero as soon as you get them. There will be various items scattered throughout the map and as soon as you nab them, make good use of them. 

Understand Each Ability

Each hero will have their own unique set of abilities. Understand what each ability does so you would know what to do with it if such a hero is played within your team or know how to counter it if it is used against your team. Learning all the abilities in the game will help you formulate a strategy that will help you win more games.

This also helps improve your team’s overall chances of winning as each of you have something to contribute to the game. In learning the abilities of each hero, you get to cover each other’s weaknesses and amplify the strengths of your damage dealers. 

Make sure to take the time to learn each ability in the game, its advantages, and the weaknesses. When it comes to your abilities, make sure that you always keep it charged. Never spam your abilities. Avoid using your abilities needlessly or else you run the risk of getting into a team fight without any of your active skills.

Learn the Map

The map in Bullet Echo is a very complex maze where everyone can take advantage of both the terrain and the fog of war. Newer players will have to contend with reading and exploring the map first but for those who truly want to excel in this game, learning each aspect of the map is very important. The more you understand the map, the more you gain knowledge and advantage in team fights.

Take full advantage of the terrain, especially during team fights. Make good use of the terrain such as corners. Take cover in them especially when you get cornered by enemies.

It will take some time to practice learning how to shoot from corners but it will be worth it. If you get cornered inside a room, take cover in a corner and wait for the enemy to enter and ambush them. 

Most enemies would have already used up their bullets and abilities at this time and if they are willing to risk it knowing you are trapped, you can turn the tide on them and lure them inside to ambush them when they take the corner.

Watch Your Step

Speaking of the map, make sure to watch your movement when you traverse through the map. Try to limit your movement as much as possible. Some new players might be tempted to run excessively across the map but in Bullet Echo, move through the map as a unit and try to be slow and sneaky as much as possible.

Every step you make can be your last so make sure that you take them carefully. You might encounter the enemy when you turn a corner so always have your guard up and play defensively. Move slowly together with your team and pay attention to your position within your group.

Add Some Friends

After playing a match or two, make sure to add your teammates especially if you feel like you have synergy working together. You will have better chances of winning the game when you are already comfortable playing with another teammate who knows your style. You won’t have to adapt to another player’s playstyle in the next match.

As mentioned, teamwork is very important in this game and if you already have a member that you work with flawlessly, make sure to grab the chance to play with them over and over. It may be very easy to learn the game and its mechanics but pulling off a win against another team is much difficult without proper teamwork.

Earn Rewards From Missions

Bullet Echo also holds events as well as daily and weekly missions for players. These missions reward players with in-game items as well as chests that will help them develop their chosen heroes. Most of these missions include playing games and other tasks such as playing more games or meeting the requirements of each mission.

Complete these missions and earn the rewards to increase your chances of earning more advantage in the game. Check out the missions available on the Missions page when you log in to the game.
