The verdict
A free-to-play 6v6 mech shooter with fun, nostalgic combat. Pay-to-win monetization, power creep and matchmaking against whales sour most players, so skip it if you won't spend money.
Great for
Nostalgic mobile veterans and mech fans who enjoy casual PvP and can tolerate or fund spending
Main risk
Getting stomped by high-spending players and finding progress impossible without paying
What players love
Playable F2P with freebies
Mentioned in ~1 in 10 positive reviews
“if you have old stuff maxed or at a decent lvl you can still climb the ranks without spending more money and they seem to be more f2p friendly with them giving out tons of data packs”
