Having released last year on PC, today sees the release of War Tech Fighters on Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PS4, bringing lots of giant mechs shooting each other, but IN SPACE!
It also hasn’t gone past me that War Tech Fighters shortens to WTF when abbreviated.
WTF features a robust campaign of over 30 missions as players try to liberate and reclaim their homeland after the evil Zatronian empire invaded and conquered the colonies of Hebos and Ares. Armed with huge fighting robots – known as War Techs – you command a team to go head on against the empire.
WTFs combat is a mix of both long range and melee. The War Techs are armed to the teeth with powerful guns and cannons to shoot down enemy ships, but also carry a sword and shield to dish out damage to opposing War Techs in a much more personal environment, all up in their robot grills.
Players are also given free rein to customise their War Techs. Not only do you get a starting choice from three distinct robots to suit your playstyle, there are over 180 upgradeable systems and parts to really make your War Tech your own. But this customisation isn’t just limited to your offensive materials; you have the choice of thousands of paint and livery options to make your space robot look the part whilst causing ultimate carnage.
The Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch versions of WTF come with some exclusive weapons for use, with the Glory Sword, Redemption Halberd, and Faith Shield all available from the beginning of the game.
