    Battletech Review: The Holy Union of XCOM and Startrek

    Battletech is a turn based strategy involving the core fundamentals of Sci-Fi adventure, space and mechs. Developed by Harebrained Schemes, the team behind Shadowrun, the hit series from the same genre, and published by Paradox interative, players familiar to the series should find themselves at home

    At it's heart, Battletech offers tactical warfare with an incredible amount of customization. Add an atmospheric soundtrack and a space sci-fi setting, and you've got yourself the recipe to a successful sci-fi strategy game. At first glance, Battletech gave me the XCOM feels but then it begins to distance itself from the classic alien infested TBS.
    [...]
    SUMMARY
    As long as you even mildly like tactical or turn based strategy games, you need to buy Battletech ASAP. It borrows the UI and combat mechanics of XCOM and Shadowrun and molds it into a much better form. A form purely inspired by tactics and strategy. The customization of the battlemechs is phenomenal and the combat more than just backs it up. There are a few technical issues, but nothing game-breaking and we expect them to be fixed soon enough.

    Score: 4.5/5
