Review: ‘Vox Machinae’ is a giant mech action game in which you will not only be fighting but also exploring and flying around inside your giant robot. Controlling the robot isn’t as intuitive as I would have liked and it does take some getting used to essentially the boost. But give it some time and you will soon find yourself lost in the action of this game. Each mech has a different playstyle and you will have to make strategic decisions to finish the game. But once you finish the single-player mode you then have a multiplayer mode to enjoy!

I loved playing ‘Vox Machinae’ I really did, but the lack of online players is truly shocking and I did think the storyline was a little…lame. The good news is there is enough single-player content to still justify the asking price and I do easily recommend it. It looks great, feels great and delivers on value. I just wish it has a bigger community of players to really back up the multiplayer mode.
