LawBreakers Reviews
In its best game modes, LawBreakers manages to make simply moving around feel amazing. Learning how to fall with style in the most deadly way possible is a thrilling challenge. Getting stuck playing a weak mode and map thanks to the grab-bag matchmaking can be frustrating, but it doesn't ruin an otherwise fast and tense shooter that lets you gleefully propel yourself through low-gravity with rocket boots and miniguns.
"LawBreakers" is a speedy, chaotic addition to the shooter market, but might struggle to break through.
LawBreakers is far from being a bad multiplayer FPS. It's a fun game with some good ideas, that can entertain you a lot. But there's nothing in it that feels really surprising or more appealling to players that already have plenty of choices in the genre.

It was the time we put Overwatch aside.

Its zero gravity segments offer something that no other FPS can, and everywhere else it's a solid, polished shooter. If you like the sound of it then I'd jump in now and build up some experience.
An unusual, extremely fast hero-shooter, that lacks a convincing design and consistent gameplay.

LawBreakers feels like combat occurring inside a snowglobe while a five-year-old shakes it really, really quickly. It's a shooter, like so many others out there, but it doesn't camouflage an axis-locked multiplayer formula with a new historical setting or gimmicky abilities — its low-gravity environments and lightning-fast traversal make it like no shooter you've ever played.
While LawBreakers isn't the most popular game on Steam right now, it's not something you should ignore. For FPS fans clamouring for something new and innovative, you have finally got what you've been asking for. If you are looking for a game with a high skill-ceiling that tries to bring new ideas to the table, definitely consider picking up LawBreakers.
Despite some superficial similarities to other recent multiplayer focused games, LawBreakers is ultimately its own beast with challenging, deep gameplay that succeeds thanks to the unique movement system, low-gravity combat and fun, varied classes.
The game's propensity for indulging counterintuitive elements feels like a willful act of self-sabotage.
Boss Key's brand of role-shooter is an enjoyable rush while it lasts, but LawBreakers may not have enough beneath the surface to last the distance.
Ultimately, what sets LawBreakers aside from its competitors in a very crowded genre is its ability to create moments.
LawBreakers not only another Hero Shooter, but it still packs lots of fun skillful games and fast paced action, maybe the marketing campaign didn't make things right but as soon as so many players discovers what the game could truly offer and the have the chance to try they will leave other games to collect the dust and stick with this one.

In general we can say that we are in front of a great title, really rich and varied and ready to offer interesting ideas, both at the level of fun and at the competitive level. Too bad for its little "reputation" in the community, but we hope that with time it will emerge and have the right space!

LawBreakers is easily one of the most enjoyable twitch shooters I’ve played in a long time.
There are also areas of each map that have an anti-gravity zone which turns each game up to 11!
Lawbreakers is an impressive $30 package that boasts a lot of versatility in its design. While the high-octane gravity-controlling hero shooter brings a lot of action and entertainment, the lack of competitive matchmaking, a standard Deathmatch mode, and a map design that lacks going the extra mile holds it just shy of perfection. Regardless of the missed opportunities, Lawbreakers still hail-marys its way to the top of my personal favorite shooters list.
LawBreakers is a fast, fierce, fun shooter. It's just a shame that I'm not very good at it! That's not a problem, though, thanks to the objective-based gameplay that's pushed to the forefront of this gravity-bending hero shooter. So if you, like me, are crap at shooters but really want to get involved, LawBreakers will welcome you with open arms. Then its players will crush you with mad floaty parkour skills, but that's all part of the charm. Right?
LawBreakers is good. But it doesn’t feel polished to the level that frequent online shooter players have come to expect. It’s character design philosophy is often at odds with the design of its levels and game modes, and while that doesn’t completely bite away at the fun, it does do damage to what is otherwise a technically well-conceived package.
