At the start, Mecha Break feels like a frenetic toy box for intricate action figures, where it’s easy to be overwhelmed by the rocket barrage spectacle, but there’s a compelling learning curve in managing your movements and weapons in perfect sync.
The third person competitive shooter, themed around giant robots, became one of the top five most played games on the platform within hours of its second open beta going live on Sunday, surpassing Apex Legends and GTA 5 with over 317,000 concurrent players.
After already proving a smash hit on Steam, with its most recent beta, GameCentral goes hands-on with an array of impressively designed giant robots in online shooter Mecha Break.
The main new mode for the second beta is Mashmak, a PvPvE mode for up to 60 players which emulates The Division’s extraction mode, Dark Zone, with battle royale elements.
After a successful initial test in August last year, Mecha Break’s second beta has launched to even higher acclaim on Steam.
