Great For A Party, Or The Family
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Rocket Wars is basically an arena multiplayer variant of Asteroids. It shares the seminal arcade game’s simple space aesthetic and momentum-based controls, and adds to them wild power-ups, several entertaining—albeit similar—modes, and support for four-player multiplayer. It’s a decent, approachable PvP party game that provides shorts bursts of frenetic fun but lacks the depth and replayability to rank among the genre’s best."
Neil writes: "For all the online experiences in the world, there is nothing better than hunkering down with a few mates on the sofa, controllers in hand and bragging rights up for grabs. It’s that draw of being victorious that has seen the local party scene flourish over many years.
Now though, there’s a new kid on the block and on the face of it Rocket Wars has all the necessary ingredients included for it to be a success. It caters for up to 4 players, and it comes with several game modes, a multitude of ship types, even more power ups and a ton of crazy weapons."
Neil writes: "The local multiplayer scene may be dismissed by many, but for those in the know, it's a thriving hotbed of the weird and wonderful. Today another addition to the local library hits Xbox One and this promises fast paced action, mad weapons and powerups galore!"
