"For mechas, this will be a breakthrough": Mecha Break impresses across its chaotic 6v6 action and revamped Mashmak extraction mode

It's hard to watch something like Mobile Suit Gundam or Pacific Rim, and not immediately dream about piloting your own skyscraper-sized mech in breakneck-paced combat. It's a fantasy that, according to Amazing Seasun CEO and executive producer Kris Kwok, drives his work on Mecha Break. "Just like a child, looking out, you see an airplane flying by, you wanna play that," Kwok tells us. "You see a supercar drive by, [you want to] drive that, and people have experienced that before. But for mechas, this will be a breakthrough."

Mecha Break is, generally, a mecha battling game where teams of pilots fight each other, across various different game modes. The 3v3 deathmatch is what it sounds like, and the 6v6 objective-based mode dubbed "Operation VERGE" mixes together point-capture, payload, and other familiar match types you'll recognize from the likes of Overwatch 2. Going hands-on with Mecha Break, we're introduced to a revamped version of Mashmak – a solo or three-person squad extraction mode.
