    With Defenders and the latest free update, Resogun has easily become the best arcade game available for PlayStation 4, but also one of the best exclusives for the Sony console.

    It's a great DLC, adding two game modes that actually expand on the original experience in a successful way.

    Defenders expands and improves an experience that was excellent since it was launched. The fans of the game will be satisfied with its contents and the new gameplay features that make Resogun one of the best PS4 exclusives and a must buy among the contemporary shooters.

    An excellent expansion to what remains the PlayStation 4’s best exclusive, and one of the most enjoyable retro shooters of the decade.

    Resogun: Defenders signs Housemarque's shooter off in predictably sublime style. Protector is arguably the game's greatest mode to date, offering everything that's enjoyable about the original – just at pulsating pace.

    Commando mode is an interesting addition, that allows you to play a infantry, with the chance to play co-op with another players. Apart from that, it lacks content. Perhaps the update that has added achievements and challenges will make you think about the purchase of this expansion.

    Resogun: Defenders’ emphasis on risk-vs-reward is sure to please fans who love topping their high score. These new modes may be Resogun’s biggest departure yet, but the core experience is still a blast to play.

    Resogun Defenders is adrenaline in its most concentrated form and a fitting send-off to one of the best arcade experiences to ever hit a console, current-gen or otherwise.

    Defenders is a worthy addition to an already great game that will no doubt please anyone with a fondness for fighting within an inch of their life while also blowing up everything in sight into tiny, beautiful pieces.

It is more Resogun and if you don't like Resogun you aren't going to like these. Defender's Commando seemed like a LittleBigPlanet creation complete with terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator quotes but was a lot of fun to be little guy protecting the city and changes the formula a lot. They added new enemies and art throughout these modes. Fun but not essential. The vanilla Resogun is much better than anything in this DLC.… Full Review »
