Oct 28, 2024Starship Troopers: Extermination is an example of how a game has potential to be good. As it stands, it still needs some balance and polish to its core. But aside from that, it shines when it works well. The real joy comes from playing with friends, standing fast against obscene amounts of bugs. It made lack the wit and satire of the film, but for an ambitious mutiplayer shooter, it may not eclipse Helldivers 2 or Space Marine, but it will stand on its own. Let's hope time is kind to this one.

Oct 17, 2024Starship Troopers: Extermination may share similarities with Helldivers, but it absolutely does enough to distinguish itself and I think I prefer it. With 16 players and massive hordes of Arachnids, the sheer scope of chaos is both intimidating and enthralling. Building a base from scratch is straightforward and lots of fun, as is trying to keep the thing from toppling over.

Oct 18, 2024Played with friends, Starship Troopers: Extermination is an enjoyable enough time-killer, but it really lacks the polish and panache of its most immediate rivals.

Nov 17, 2024Starship Troopers and its legacy persist in popular culture, being a cult film that is increasingly loved and applauded by viewers and a novel that is highly sought after by generations of readers. Unfortunately, this video game does not quite work and does not know how to take advantage of the interesting license and the controversial universe on which it claims to be based. As a result, we have a cooperative multiplayer action video game that tries to be original - and entertaining - but that pales greatly in comparison to other, much more notable options.

Oct 21, 2024Starship Troopers: Extermination on console puts the rough in Roughnecks. Technical issues, poor crossplay implementation, and frustratingly chaotic gameplay design leave much to be desired.
