    Killsquad’s attempt at a twin-stick shooter unfortunately falls flat in almost every aspect of its design. The competent but bland combat, aesthetically interesting but boring presentation and poorly balanced mechanics lead to a functional but ultimately lifeless video game. It’s not bad, it’s just not a lot of fun to actually play.

    Given how crowded the market is, and especially how crowded the action RPG space is, that makes it incredibly hard to recommend Killsquad. When there’s so much else vying for your attention and competing for your time, it’s hard to look at Killsquad and recommend it over other options. Perhaps if it was available on Game Pass it’d be an easier sell, but given the fact that Novarama hasn’t brought Killsquad to Xbox yet, as things stand right now, it’s on a pretty lown rung on the action RPG ladder.    … Full Review »
