I barely play mecha games. I have played one or two Gundam games when I was younger and it was fun. Now that I'm older, Daemon X Machina caught my attention since it is an exclusive for the Nintendo Switch. I tried the beta earlier and it was lackluster but the devs really listened to our feedback and made the game a lot better. Definitely digging the customizations, animations and gameplay. It's smooth and unlocking better gear certainly gives you a sense of achievement. Also, you can do co-op missions with your friends. I do however, wish you could do story missions with your friends but the game story requires you to do the missions with the characters in the game. Co-op missions are great for earning you money to help build or upgrade your Arsenal (machine) and Outer (you, the operator).
Overall, great game and I give it an 8.5/10
