Override: Mech City Brawl Reviews
Override is a game that had so much potential and could have done something great with more ambition. In the end, no amount of oil could polish this scrap metal into something decent and enjoyable.
But who can blame people for not gravitating toward this when there is a larger, more expansive, and much smoother gameplay experience out there at a negligible price difference on the Switch in Daemon X Machina? Override Mech City Brawl asks a lot out of potential customers for a much more flawed game. Even if it were a budget title, the framerate valleys, constricting scale, limited customization options, and a completely dead online presence would make it tough to recommend. In its current state, you'd do best to walk past the smoldering pile.
Override: Mech City Brawl is funnier with friends. Use Mech's, destroy your enemy, and destroy city's

While Override: Mech City Brawl is a promising enough idea, sadly the execution leaves a lot to be desired
Override : Mech City Brawl shows a very nice gallery of giant robots, but unfortunately it does not offer the impactfull experience that we expected.

A fun mech fighting game, with really enjoyable slower paced combat. Unfortunately Override Mech City Brawl is marred by framerate issues, and there's nobody online to play against
Graphically, the game has nothing to say, Except for the charming colors. The environments don't look attractive at all because of this poor graphics, which makes it difficult to drown in the world of overdrive. In terms of audio, the game is mediocre and nothing high-end. Overall, it can be said that Override: Mech City Brawl has some issues that overshadow its quality and it's hard to recommend this game to anyone. If you like robots, this game might be a good option with at least a Good discount.

There's the nucleus of a great mech punch 'em up here, but Override: Mech City Brawl needs some more time in R&D before it can get there.
Override: Mech City Brawl presents a fun premise yet unfortunately; it doesn't offer any sort of substantial long-lasting gameplay.
New and light experience You can enjoy with your friends on weekends

Override: Mech City Brawl is a good choice for those who enjoy light and fun online games with many robotic fights. Battle of Robots is some fun but Override: Mech City Brawl has very little to offer when it comes to story and has a number of issues with depth of gameplay and physics. Also graphic design is not satisfying and the level of details is low.

Override: Mech City Brawl has a few good inspirations and does well on some points, but there are a lot of problems that prevent it from becoming a better game.

Override: Mech City Brawl may look like the anime mech fighter you've been waiting for, but the gameplay just doesn't cut it.
Override: Mech City Brawl, while clunky and cumbersome, is an enjoyable, casual party fighting game.
Override: Mech City Brawl had a lot of promise and actually generated a bit of hype from me. Sadly the game sinks like a giant hunk of metal should instead of rocket boosts out like we'd hope in many departments (especially the melee combat). There is fun to be had here but depending on the player it can fizzle out fast and leave you wishing there was more to it. I really commend the team for the ideas presented here and the support they're giving it is great with 4 more characters being released in the future. The foundation has been set, I just hope they come back to this idea with more in store one day.
Ultimately, Override: Mech City Brawl has high aims, but feels a bit clumsy in its execution. It wants to be both a big arena fighter with giant robots and destructible buildings, but it also has designs for real competition. There's even a story mode in there with stat-building, customization, and bonuses like a goofy co-op mode. There's a lot going on in terms of foundation, but not enough polish and care in the core of it, which makes actually playing Override: Mech City Brawl feel bland and same-y no matter what you're doing. Frankly, many of the modes outside of 1v1 competition do more to expose problems, when you'd think they'd mask them. I appreciate that this game is making a callback to a genre that has been missing in action for a long time, but instead of embracing what that means, it tries to hard to make it fit inside a contemporary box. And that box is far too small for giant robots.
Override: Mech City Brawl is good fun with a friend or two sitting on your sofa, but it lacks the kind of depth that a smaller release like this needs to be consistently compelling. The game's got some cool mech designs and watching big robots tumble through buildings is always enjoyable, but it's just not quite enough to carry the rest of the release.
Gameplay-wise, Override a very entertaining game; especially when it comes to local multiplayer matches. But unfortunately and because of some issues like the lack of content, it cannot convince players to keep playing for a long time

Override: Mech City Brawl features a fun and engaging combat, featuring giant mechs facing against each other, or against giant aliens. It's slightly marred by an unwieldy camera which loves to obscure your view of the fight and limited single-player options. However, this is made up by it being one of the better party or online games out there, when you have the people online, particularly as you can group up with up to three other players to control the same or different mechs.
Override: Mech City Brawl is as fun as your attention span will last. There just isn't enough content to keep players coming back for the long haul.
