Robot Wars never fails to get the latest generation pumped up with its mechanised clashes and brutal robot attacks. There is just something about the way metal clangs together and how it succumbs to damage that is simply wondrous – and in a way Override: Mech City Brawl gives us the ultimate in robot fighting. Just with huge mechs, towering above skyscrapers – and all manner of swords and guns to boot!
Override: Mech City Brawl is available now on Xbox One with Xbox One X Enhanced colourful visuals as well as PS4 and PC, to bring intense local and online multiplayer gameplay at its core, tasking you and friends to pick one of 12 distinct robots and use their unique abilities and weapons to smash the not-living hell out of each other.
After customising your mech in the extensive cosmetic customization garage, you will be able to land into a variety of exciting cities – or even the moon – and whilst you throw punches, kicks and lasers at one another, the buildings will satisfyingly fall to the ground. Various weapons and power-ups will also be scattered around the landscape – pick one up and get an attacking edge over your opponent.
But if you fancy working together with friends then the up to 4-player co-op mode will cater for your needs, with each player controlling an individual part of one robot in the landscape. Communication here is quite clearly key if you want your robot to work as a well-oiled, well, robot. Alternatively, you may want to test out your skills as a solo player against computer controlled enemies in the story campaign before taking on human opponents.
It really is that simple. Grab a mech, make it hot pink if you want, and get to smashing cities and each other for the victory!
Override: Mech City Brawl is now purchasable on Xbox One, PS4 and PC for £24.99 or, if you fancy picking up 4 bonus DLC mechs as well as many more skins, then the Super Charged Mega Edition will be your port of call for £29.99.
See you out there!
