What players say

79% of 15,492 reviews are positive · 77% of 137 in the last 30 days

Players praise the large-scale tactical battles, battlegroup variety, and lack of base building. Common complaints target art and voices that players describe as AI-generated, costly DLC viewed as repetitive, and single-player AI that appears to know hidden positions or gain unfair advantages.
