But there’s definitely pressure to make the right moves. It’s as if Edge of Tomorrow was crossed with the likes of Pacific Rim.Īs for the game’s action, it’s all turn-based meaning there’s no great pressure to rush through strategic decisions. A brief low-fi pixel art-style intro explains that the Vek, a race of giant insect like monsters, have pretty much destroyed humanity, and to reverse that a team of mechs needs to go back in time and beat them before the cataclysm happens. Into the Breach immediately grabbed me with its menu music composed by the simply brilliant Ben Prunty.

There's an incredible amount of depth, and despite only typically controlling three units, you'll often find yourself spending several minutes on each turn trying to imagine the different approaches you can take before choosing the best course of action.The Vek, a race of giant insect like monsters, have pretty much destroyed humanity, and to reverse that a team of mechs needs to go back in time and beat them before the cataclysm happens.
That might involve absorbing an attack meant for the power grid, repositioning enemies to render their attacks harmless, or-most enjoyable-forcing enemies to fire on each other. You always know exactly what enemies will do during their upcoming turn, leaving it to your limited number of actions to eliminate or manipulate the level (and enemies) to avert disaster. You pilot a crew of mechs across a series of turn-based battles in which you battle giant monsters, protecting buildings and other infrastructure from their attacks. While that game has never made it onto any consoles, Into the Breach makes the transition here seamlessly, playing remarkably well on Switch.
Into the Breach is a brilliant strategy game from the makers of FTL.
