The control and action base of the game is the same idea behind most successful MMORPGs, consisting largely of your character walking around, taking missions, and hitting things. But instead of the same old orcs and battle axes, the Matrix offers plenty of unique possibilities new to the online roleplaying world. Need a better weapon for a tough battle? Forget that town portal, just have your operator upload you a weapon with a little more kick. As your character grows more proficient in abusing the laws of the Matrix, you begin learning rather impressive wire-fu moves to dispatch your attackers. Another refreshing factor for the hack and slashers out there is may be that there are no silly first level animals (snakes, beetles and the like) that you must defeat in order to improve. Even the weakest foes you face, such as street thugs, can still be fairly dangerous if not handled correctly.
