Mech combat sim fans will find a lot to love in the tactical, team-based skirmishes of this free-to-play title. Players pilot massive, customizable 'Mechs, engaging in slow-paced, deliberate battles where positioning and heat management are as important as pinpoint accuracy. The deep customization options, coupled with the satisfying crunch of metal on metal, keep players returning to the battlefield for another round of stomping their foes into oblivion.
