War Tech Fighters

Love Mechs? War Tech Fighters is out now!

Fight epic battles in outer space in a game inspired by Japanese fiction. 

Italian indie studio Drakkar Dev and Green Man Gaming announced today the release of their mech space fighting game War Tech Fighters for PC. In it players will get involved in high octane battles in order to save the galaxy from the evil Zatros Empire.

Like any mech lover would want, War Tech Fighters features both long range and close quarters combat, allowing users to engage in gun fights or even take out their sword and slash enemies away. With many mechs to unclock and customize, War Tech Fighters looks a lot like a Pacific Rim video game, and for that we can’t complain.

“As anyone who experienced War Tech Fighters in Early Access will know, we’ve looked to bring together the best elements from Japanese Anime and Hollywood Blockbusters into one explosive package,” says Manlio Greco, CEO of Drakkar Dev in their latest press release, in which they also specified some of the game’s features:

War Tech Fighters

The game’s main story revolves around the evil alien Zatros Empire and our mission of proctecting the Ares and Hebos colonies from them. It’s 3D space shooting environment seems to be an exciting way of carrying out great battles, while its first person mode adds some more control options over the chaos.

“The sheer scale of the space battles, with players switching rapidly between ranged and close combat, is incredible to watch. Balancing between the two approaches creates incredible variety in gameplay, as does the amount of time gamers spend customising their mechs to represent their own inimitable style.”, said Greco.

War Tech Fighters is out today for $14.99, £9.99, €14,99. Players can also benefit from a 50% discount during launch week.
