War Robots: Frontiers takes the classic War Robots formula and catapults it into the realm of high-fidelity, physics-driven mayhem. Published by My.com, this third-person mech shooter offers large-scale battles where hulking war machines clash in destructible environments. Unlike its mobile predecessor, Frontiers is built from the ground up for PC and consoles, leveraging Unreal Engine 5 to create more immersive combat scenarios.
The game focuses on team-based, objective-driven battles, where players pilot powerful mechs—called "War Robots"—customizing their weapons, armor, and abilities to fit their playstyle. Whether you prefer agile skirmishers, heavy artillery platforms, or tank-like juggernauts, Frontiers has a mech for you. Combat is dynamic and fast-paced, emphasizing strategy, positioning, and environmental destruction. Buildings crumble under heavy fire, providing both tactical opportunities and chaotic spectacle.
Customization is a big deal here, allowing players to tweak their machines with different weapons, modules, and abilities. The movement system is more refined than in the original War Robots, with smoother animations, better weight distribution, and an overall more polished feel. The maps are large and varied, featuring urban battlegrounds, industrial zones, and open wastelands.
For fans of mech-based destruction, War Robots: Frontiers delivers thrilling, high-octane action, estabilishing itself as one of the best online shooter of 2025.

Good storyline
15 classes and sub-classes and challenging missions.

Graphics have a room for improvement.
The world of NosVille has turned to chaos and your character comes in with tremendous power and fighting abilities to bring it to peace.
You'll have a number of NosMates (computer-controlled characters) to help you in this quest, as well as pets. Over the course of the game, you will also gain access to different cards that will give your character newfound skills.
NosTale comes with a number of unique classes and their interesting sub-classes with each character possessing special abilities depending on which group they are from.
To make the game less gloomy and more fun, you can train pets as well and make them get involved in missions too.
With all these features and so much more, NosTale really promises to be an excellent adventure for you.

Stunning visuals and atmospheric maps

Balance issues between mech classes
Long matchmaking times
Progression system feels grind-heavy
Steel Hunters drops you into a war-torn futuristic battlefield where towering mechs and elite pilots engage in fast-paced tactical skirmishes. Combining elements of battle royales, MOBA, and third-person shooters, it challenges players to outwit, outgun, and outmaneuver each other in chaotic, yet strategic encounters.
Developed by Kingsoft and driven by Unreal Engine 4, the game stands out for its crisp visuals, highly customizable mechs, and the delicate balance between survival mechanics and deep progression systems. Players select from a roster of distinctive steel titans, each equipped with its own weapons, abilities, and playstyle, and then jump into large, open arenas riddled with environmental hazards, loot zones, and rival hunters.
The core gameplay revolves around PvEvP (Player vs Environment vs Player), where AI-controlled enemies and real opponents create a constant layer of danger. As you eliminate targets and complete objectives, you gain upgrades on the fly—enhancing your mech’s firepower, armor, and mobility.
Resource gathering, stealth ambushes, and tactical positioning are key components, offering a more methodical pace than your standard run-and-gun shooter.
The mix of tactical decision-making, mech customization, and intense firefights helps Steel Hunters to carve its niche in the increasingly crowded PvP market. It's not for everyone, but for those who enjoy Titanfall’s mechs with a hint of Escape from Tarkov’s tension, it just might be a hidden gem worth exploring.

Gorgeous hand-painted art
Deep class experimentation
Cozy and satisfying grind loops

Cluttered and dated UI
Performance hiccups and lag
Opaque systems
Steep learning curve
Tree of Savior is a Korean isometric MMORPG from IMC Games that wears its old-school sensibilities—and its Ragnarok Online heritage—on an embroidered sleeve.
The first thing that hits you is the look: painterly backdrops, chibi-but-detailed character sprites, and particle effects that bloom like magic confetti.
The second thing is the class system. You don’t just pick a role; you stitch one together from multiple class advancements, mixing archetypes (Wizard, Swordsman, Archer, Cleric, Scout) with a smorgasbord of subclasses to create a build that’s either brilliantly synergized… or hilariously cursed. That freedom is the game’s identity: it’s a sandbox for build-tinkerers.
Combat is quick and flashy—an action-oriented click/keyboard/controller affair where positioning, cooldowns, and mob herding matter. The PvE loop leans hard into grinding, with quest hubs, instanced dungeons, raids, challenge modes, and field farming that feels cozy when you’re in the groove. Gear progression, attributes, enchants, and ichors layer on long-term goals, while the soundtrack—light, whimsical, and nostalgic—keeps the mood buoyant.
It’s not all cotton-candy clouds. Tree of Savior has historically struggled with a clunky UI, uneven onboarding, and performance hiccups during busy scenes. Some systems are opaque until you live in them, and the meta can feel like a moving target. Monetization and event cadence have waxed and waned over the years, and the population varies by region and season.
Still, when Tree of Savior clicks, it really clicks. It’s that rare MMO where experimentation is the point, where you load into a sunny field, turn monsters into fireworks, and tweak your build for “just one more” percent. If you crave expressive character building, cozy mob mowing, and throwback vibes with modern sparkle, this quirky canopy of a game is worth climbing.

Amazing soundtrack Convincing story Cool graphical ass...ets Simple and fun
.. and what we didn't
The gameplay lacks some depth... ... so it will get boring after a few weeks or months
Let's be honest: In Goddess of Victory you come for those sweet, spicy shooting girls in anime style, but you end up staying for an unexpectedly good lore, storytelling and soundtrack.
The gameplay itself is pretty simple: you shoot at things in 2D, so don't expect a full-featured online shooter like Call of Duty. Fights can (and will) get messy and fun, that's for sure, but the game lacks the depth of a hardcore shooter.
This is where the surprise comes in, because you'll immediately recognize the quality of the soundtrack, the colourful artworks and the solid lore and storytelling, which will immediately create an enjoyable and convincing atmosphere
If you like anime and are looking for a causal, simple game that is not too addictive or time consuming, definitely give Nikke a chance

We didn't want another city building game

PvP: guild or factions PvE PvP
Stormshot: Skull Isle Odyssey is a casual free-to-play game from FunPlus Entertainment (a company you might already know for other games like State of Survival or King of Avalon).
It is set in a world of pirates, hidden treasures, monsters and beautiful beaches, recreated with convincing graphics and dialogues... don't get us wrong: we're still talking about a casual game for PC and mobile devices, so don't expect the immersive experience of a full-featured MMORPG, but for the intended use of this game (killing some time during the lunch break, for example), the technical and story-telling aspects were quite enjoyable.
Regarding the gameplay, Stormshot is basically two-games-in-one: there will be the physics-based strategic shooting puzzles, and the city-building aspect.
The puzzles are the most enjoyable part: they are made in the style of Angry Birds, the iconic game that kinda invented this genre many years ago. There are hundreds of levels, very different one from another, very coloured, fun and sometimes humorous, granting a unique and fun experience every single time.
The city-building aspect is what we already know so well: gather resources, wait, build stuff, wait, wait more time, upgrade stuff, and so on... While many people do love this kind of dynamics, we felt it wasn't really necessary in a game like this, and we would have preferred to just have the excellent puzzles without being forced to play all the rest.

State of Survival is an immersive, zombie-themed survival strategy game for PC and mobile devices.
The game combines real-time strategy, role-playing, base-building and tower defense elements, providing a rich gameplay experience.
Set in a post-apocalyptic world, players must band together in settlements and defend them against hordes of zombies and other players.
Combat happens in real time in full tower-defense style, combining RPG and strategy elements. While you're not fighting, you'll spend your time upgrading your settlement, training your troops, recruiting your heroes and coordinating with your alliance to rule this harsh, zombie-infested world.
Another notable aspect of the game is the rich storyline, which unfolds through a series of quests and missions. Players can explore different regions, uncover hidden secrets, and interact with various characters as they progress through the game. The narrative adds a sense of purpose and direction to the game, and helps players stay engaged and invested in their settlements and characters.
Overall, State of Survival is a compelling and addictive game that offers a unique and satisfying experience for players who enjoy strategy, RPG, and survival games.
With its pleasant visuals, engaging gameplay, and rich narrative, it's easy to see why the game has become so popular among PC gamers.

Dated graphics
Cash store advantage
War Robots is a free-to-play, cross-platform online multiplayer shooter that offers an engaging, fast-paced 6v6 PvP action.
The game's huge selection of customizable mech robots, map variety and game modes will offer hours of fun without burdening your wallets.
The gameplay starts on the slower side, but at higher-level matches, mechs will dictate the pace - upgrades to speed, flight and more can turn the tide of the battlefield.
Graphics are on the lower end but that's to be expected for a game that's on both PC and mobiles.
The cash store is unfortunately very influential, and mech robots that cost real money will grant players a huge leg up in battles.
Overall, War Robots is a good time if one is looking for some quick PvP shooter action in a world full of mechs.

It's Star Trek!
Wandering through space is a joy
Good representation of galactic battles
Great character customization system
.. and what we didn't
Some repetitive quest types
Unworthy animation
Star Trek Online is an MMO developed by Cryptic Studios and inspired the eponymous television series.
Chronologically, it is set thirty years after the conclusion of the events of Star Trek: Nemesis and drops us in the middle of the rekindled conflict between the Federation and the Klingons, without forgetting about the Borg, always lurking in the background.
Character customization is very good and allows you to choose between three different factions, with numerous races for each, and three distinct classes between them.
Customization also extends to physical appearance and choice of skills.
During the game we will have the opportunity to complete assignments on foot or aboard our personal spaceship.
On foot, the game seems like an action/RPG hybrid where we directly control our character through a third-person view.
Aboard the ship, however, we will have the opportunity to fight and to explore the surrounding area.
Graphically the game is very good but is lacking in some technical fields, one of which is the animation in the third-person sections.
All in all, it's a good game for fans of the genre and a great game for avid fans of Star Trek.
