Boundary is a first-person tactical arena shooter that pits players in two-team low-gravity space engagements, with a somewhat similar premise to Rainbow Six Siege split character teams and round-based matches. A demo for the game was available in February 2023, and the game was fully released on April 13th, 2023.

Boundary stands out from the FPS genre as it is the first full-fledged title set in space. The players take control of several combat-ready astronauts with their dedicated strike packages, akin to the operators/heroes with unique abilities in different games. Players are divided into to two teams, the Solar System Defences and the Vacuum Exiles. The real-world firearms and custom "Generic Soldier Weapon" series are all purpose-tailored for space combat, with white anti-radiation paintjobs and typically featuring heavy-profile barrels, heat sinks, and modified triggerguards or 'D'-shaped cutlass guards on pistol grips.

Boundary functions as a six-axis shooter, with the astronaut player characters having Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU)-type thruster systems incorporated into their spacesuits. Player characters can walk and crouch on satellite surfaces when in an upright position upon them. The effects of recoil for many of the small arms are generally canceled out by the MMUs, though the machine guns and high-caliber marksman weapons will push the player character back if fired while floating stationary, and will slow down players down if they are moving forward against the projectile direction.

The following weapons appear in the video game Boundary:

Handguns

Stechkin APB

A modified, white-painted Stechkin machine pistol is one of the sidearms and comes standard for Orlan. It is presumably made from the APB variant with the compensator mounted on the APB's extended barrel. There is no suppressor modification available in game, though the wire stock is. It fires in semi-auto by default, with the full auto option only available as an unlock.

Its to be noted that the arsenal in ''Boundary'' was specifically tuned to fit space combat, like extended trigger guards to fit astronauts' gloves or removal of all wooden furniture.
