How it plays

  • Matches hold up to eight tanks in teams or free-for-all.

  • Each turn you set angle and power, then watch the shot arc and the terrain collapse.

  • The turns leave plenty of time to talk and tease, and the steady stream of weapon unlocks keeps groups coming back.

  • Friends can also add local players to a skirmish and take turns on one screen, up to eight on PC and four on Xbox.

  • Strategy
  • Competitive
  • Party chaos
  • Newcomer friendly
  • Good with kids
