The past few months have been full of expansive RPGs, a trend that’s only going to continue through October with Metaphor: ReFantazio and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It can be hard to find time for other games between those dozens-of-hours experiences, but one ludicrously fun recent Nintendo Switch port is worth setting aside a few hours when you have the time.
Go Mecha Ball launched earlier this year on PC and Xbox, but it just made its way to PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch at the end of September. The roguelike action game puts players in control of a surprisingly cute little mech to do battle with other ’bots in arena combat. Its defining feature is the ability to curl your mech in on itself, turning it from a walking robot to a speedy wrecking ball, as its name implies. With a combination of a large suite of weapons and a quick dash in ball form, you’ll fight your way through four different environments capped with gigantic bosses, earning upgrades and new tools along the way.
