The Advanced Edition Update makes the game feel new again with additional mechs, equipment, pilot, enemies, missions and more! /skASgOEz9l- Subset Games JTo see this content please enable targeting cookies. The new Advanced Edition update is now available on PC and Nintendo Switch! And that was only with a relatively small number of units to choose from – to harvest for their skill and mix-and-match into the perfect, timeline-saving trio of badass space marines. When the game first launched back in 2018 – four years ago! – its minimalistic combat and roster of pilots and mechs was enough to seize my heart in mechanical hands and keep it for good. Every move you make, every action you take – it all needs to be thought through and executed perfectly, lest you succumb to the piercing beam of an alien megabeast and come crashing down into a nearby housing block. It never feels unfair, and it never feels hard for the sake of it. The game masterfully outmaneuvers you, pushes you into a corner, and gives you the tools to break free from certain defeat. It's such a shame it was written by Chris Avellone, who would later be ousted from the industry on the back of a series of sexual harassment allegations.īut perhaps the most compelling part of Into The Breach is how it forces you to question “damn, how am I going to get out of this alive?” about three times per level.

That’s the mech pilot fantasy Into the Breach does so well. But the depth of it all, and how it makes your tiny acts of heroism feel iconic and herculean every time… that’s the special sauce. And yes, every level will see you bombarding, shooting, punching, pushing, or pulling enemies until you save the day (again). Yes, every encounter takes place on an 8x8 grid. A strategy game pieced together with watchmaker-like precision, where all the tiny moving parts work harmoniously to create something infinitely replayable.

And to be honest, you’d be in the right ballpark. A quick glimpse of the game – teeming with mechs, alien beasts, skyscrapers, and mountains – and you’d be forgiven for thinking it was something to do with Evangelion or Godzilla. It’s deceptive how much strategy and forethought a simple 8x8 grid can conceal.
