Freedom Wars Remastered is a wonderful upgrade over the 2014 original, but there are a couple of components I wish had some quality-of-life changes to get rid of some of the stiffness. Fighting against giant robots and ripping them apart is a blast, and I enjoyed the story and setting of this totalitarian, post-apocalyptic world. However, navigating through menus, moving around, and fighting against the smaller bots and human fodder didn't feel as great, and how often you need to do all of that affected my enjoyment overall. Playing on the Steam Deck is my favorite way to play the game, and it fits right at home. It does seem like there may be some engine limitations for multiplayer, which are causing some issues with performance, but it's still playable and can be configured to save some extra battery, which I appreciate. Freedom Wars Remastered definitely won't replace Monster Hunter, but the pros outweigh the cons, and I still had a blast playing.

I don't know how we got here, but Freedom Wars is back. The PS Vita classic returns, modernized for the new generation and looking to reach new players. Despite the clunky combat and repetitive missions, the plot was competent enough to keep me intrigued.
