The WhatsNext verdict

For Players who enjoy intricate science-fiction mysteries, richly drawn characters, and tactical mech battles: Its nonlinear story gradually connects a large cast and their intersecting timelines, while battles turn mech loadouts into a real-time tactical puzzle. Tradeoff: The story is dialogue-heavy and deliberately fragmented, so it asks for patience and attention between combat sequences.
