Star Wars Hunters Review - The Final Verdict

  • Star Wars: Hunters is a surprisingly fun hero shooter wrapped around a somewhat aggressive live-service model. The movement is really smooth, providing instantaneous spinning and precise aiming.
    And if you’re a prequel or original trilogy fan, you’re in luck because the games provide lots of references and gimmicks from those Star Wars eras. There are bright store banners across every menu in Star Wars: Hunters, and the push to buy exclusive items is overkill.
    Despite the live-service monetization, the game’s progression is entirely accessible without paying anything. Characters are unlocked in a linear and drip-fed manner, but it doesn’t take too long to unlock them if you’re winning matches. The core gunplay, personality of the characters, and wonderful aesthetic provide an experience worth checking out as long as you can ignore the live- service stuff.

    I personally like this game. The grind is long tho.
    Also they give you alot of credits but they only gave me knew skin to buy so far. There are a fair amount of free skins that you get from leveling your character.
    The graphics are pretty good considering it's a mobile game. I phone gets firey hot while playing this game.
    I've been playing with a controller and it's really fun to play that way.

      @epiclight858 alot of tasks can take a while. I still haven't unlocked all the characters. The arena pass will take me a while.
      People play games at different paces. If you've completed most things thst kind of sucks.
      One of my tasks is to spend 2.5k credits and I allready bought the 2 things in the store that you could buy with credits so I can't complete that quest yet.
      I'm also not max rank yet.
      There's going to be more weekly tasks in a couple days.

    Game is fun AF. As a certified day 1 reveal hater I can attest to this. Matches are nice and short and I don't feel like I have to sit and commit a lot of time to it. Characters feel good to play, I think the roster mostly suffers from underpowered characters that need to be brought up to speed rather than characters who need outright nerfs. The roster is also pretty fun, lots of characters that I can't imagine existing in other SW media but can easily fit in here, the room for creativity is endless - there's a goddamn Ugnaught piloting a Droideka and two Jawas in a trenchcoat.

    with microtransactions that cost $2 when you have other video games telling you that a single skin is worth $80, this battle pass cost $12 compared to other battle passes that cost you $30 or like Destiny where you have to buy every single season again.
    This game was made by Zynga without any other people support, you say it's fomo but you're going to be able to unlock everything later on in the game so you're lying.
    Crystal currency a boost to buy a charter, and for cosmetics coins are for cosmetics.
    The game is extremely balanced and actually is a lot of fun
