    A brilliantly-designed and executed multiplayer thrillfest.

    Laser League is, quite simply, an excellent game. It is very easy to grasp the basics and have fun, but the gameplay also holds tremendous depth.

    Laser League is, quite simply, an excellent game. It is very easy to grasp the basics and have fun, but the gameplay also holds tremendous depth. Multiple classes with unique abilities and perks leave room for much strategizing and synergizing, but it is the gameplay at its core that is so thrilling and tactically brilliant. No two matches will ever be the same, despite utilizing the same maps. As laser-nodes change hands, the battlefield morphs in intoxicating and surprising fashion.

    This is a game where you must always be on your toes. Reflexes are important, yes, but what the game rewards more than anything is quick-thinking and awareness.

    On PS4, the game runs great and does not exhibit performance issues of any kind. My only real complaint is player-count at launch. In the evening, it is pretty easy to find matches, but at off hours you can find yourself matched with some AI. The AI puts up a real challenge, but this is a game deserving of a serious following. One can only hope that this game gains the traction it deserves.    … Expand

It is refreshing to see something different multiplayer wise as innovation seems to be lacking, usually, in this category of gaming. Laser league nails the "easy to pick up, hard to master" of games like rocket league, with visuals reminiscent of Tron, and plenty of customization and unlockables. Disregard the 0 from "ColbyTurkey", the game runs perfectly. Give this game a shot, it is GREAT!… Expand

    Laser League is an instant classic, a game that takes you back to the golden era of simple and addictive arcade games.

    It's ridiculous how much depth in gameplay you can get from a game that makes use of just one action button. A testament to Roll7, one of the most imaginative and creative indie developers out there. They've really done it again.

    Both the intense local couch multiplayer with some friends, or the more e-sportsy online multiplayer mode for progression unlocking and leaderboard bragging are an absolute blast. Loving it!

    *Been playing it regularly since release and I have not experienced a single glitch or any performance issue, the game seems pretty stable to me.    … Expand

    Really great competitive and fun game with great potential.
    It just need 3 things to be the next big game that everybody plays.
    1- Continues support and free updates with more maps, player classes and modes. 2 - Online Co-op with 2 players on the same console competing with other players online 3- Nintendo Switch release with cross-play between Xbox, PC and the Switch. To me a    Really great competitive and fun game with great potential.

    I don't understand why more people don't play this game. It's quick to learn and one the best game I've played in a long time.

    This game accomplishes all its purposes and goals, and it does so excellently. It's super fast-paced, thrilling and exciting game. It's been ages since I had so much instant fun playing a game. A very simple set of rules that produce very complex, exciting and addictive results that even casual gamers can get instantly hooked to.

It's been ages since I had so much instant fun playing a game. A very simple set of rules that produce very complex, exciting and addictive results that even casual gamers can get instantly hooked to. Also, it has provided me *the BEST COUCH CO-OP I've had since the NES years* which, also reminds me of how much fun you could have then with games that were so simple yet so engaging. I'm not much of a gamer, I've never subscribed to PS+ since I'm not that into it but, man, this games is so fun to play with people that it even made PAY for a PS+ sub just to keep playing it with actual human beings (it's just not the same against AI, is it?). I do encourage everyone to try it.… Expand
