Splash Damage has released the first gameplay footage of Dirty Bomb, its free-to-play online PC exclusive shooter.

The Enemy Territory and Brink developer announced the game last month with the launch of a website.

This new video shows pre-alpha footage with lots of run and gun, objective-based gameplay. There's a near-future tank and what looks to be some sort of barricade building.
