'AirMech Arena' (X360) Coming to PS4/Xbox One - Screens

by Rainier on March 11, 2015 @ 6:05 p.m. PDT

AirMech Arena is a fast-paced, free-to-play competitive game set in a war-torn future where powerful weapons known as AirMechs dominate the battlefields in the fight for scarce resources.

In the future, the last survivors of the Great War continue their fight alongside the ultimate war machine: the AirMech. A shining symbol of science and engineering during the Golden Age of mankind, they were designed to be the most adaptable machines, which makes them the perfect weapon in this new era. In this combative future pilots use salvaged or stolen AirMechs to protect the weak, or to plunder and stockpile resources. Which side do you fight for?

In AirMech Arena, players control powerful transforming weapons known as AirMechs to protect their bases and overtake enemy fortresses. Gamers will collect up to nine available AirMechs, each with its own unique abilities, and command them to deploy defense units from the air or to transform into ground mode and engage armies on the front line. As they gain experience, they will earn kudos (in-game currency) to unlock upgrades, new units and pilots to expand their collection, and customize their appearance with exclusive skins and effects.

AirMech Arena allows players to complete quests and earn rewards in solo games, or partner with up to four friends for cooperative play online. Competitors can test their skills in ranked matches, or spar for practice in unranked mode. Teamwork is vital to succeed in multiplayer as allies must manage resources and defend their bases while simultaneously attempting to capture their opponent’s territory. The game also supports a spectator mode, which gives gamers the opportunity to view each other’s matches and see the top competitive players in action.
