It was just over two years ago when players had the opportunity to fight the ultimate mechanised battle with Override: Mech City Brawl, yet whilst it covered a few bases, ultimately it fell short of being able to deliver the most enjoyable fight. Now though Modus Games are back as Override 2: Super Mech League launches.
Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC, Override 2 is attempting to push on from the original game to provide another competitive arena brawler, one that just so happens to come with a decent array of super-powered mech fighters.
Priced at £24.99 for the standard edition – an edition that comes with full Xbox Series X|S optimisation – you’ll be given the chance to partake in a Career mode which will see you fighting your way through the ranks with the ultimate goal of becoming the best mech pilot in the galaxy. There will however also be the opportunity to take in a variety of Versus and co-op game modes, running both locally and via the online scene, as you work with 20 playable robots, many unique abilities and numerous skillsets.
Throw in a ton of cosmetic options, battle grounds that come with their own unique dynamic elements and more, and chances are Override 2: Super Mech League is going to provide a more rounded experience than before.
If you’re really sold with Override 2 though then a super special Ultraman Edition is also available. This comes priced a little steeper – £34.99 in fact – but does include the full Season Pass for good measure; something which will set ou back £11.99 should you prefer to purchase it at a later date. As the name suggests, this provides access to 4 additional playable ULTRAMAN characters – Ultraman, Bemular, Dan Moroboshi, and Black King post launch. Ultraman is available as an individual purchase for £3.59 too.

- • Career Mode: Fight in Mech Leagues and soar to new heights, aiming to be the best mech pilot. Represent your Club and work together with its members to earn Influence and rewards!
