    The launch of Rocket Arena feels like season one of Fortnite in the sense that it feels like something huge but it just needs the community and celebrity support behind it. It’s easy to get stuck playing another match after completing one, which is a key hallmark of the battle royale genre. Once I pick up Rocket Arena in any given day, it’s hard to put it down until I absolutely need to. The gameplay is addicting even if the colourful visuals seem more directed towards kids. While Rocket Arena is a great game for adults to master, it’s the perfect game for a kid to enjoy due to the cartoon violence with a competitive edge.

    It feels a little content deficient at launch, but Rocket Arena is a solid multiplayer shooter that is almost something great, and hopefully, the developers get the chance to help the game reach its full potential. In the meantime, those looking for a fun new multiplayer game can't go wrong with Rocket Arena.

    Rocket Arena is a fun hero shooter, perfect for quick games with friends. It's not perfect, but it offers some interesting and weird game modes.

    Rocket Arena has got all the elements to offer a pleasing multiplayer hero shooter experience, with nice characters, colorful and varied maps and a good base gameplay loop. It still needs some improvements though, especially in controls and usability and with more original modes.

    Rocket Arena was developed by Final Strike Games and published by EA Games Rocket Arena. I really don't know how to start As it looks andRocket Arena was developed by Final Strike Games and published by EA Games Rocket Arena. I really don't know how to start As it looks and plays like so many games at same time such as Super Smash Bro's and Brawlhalla united then clashed with Overwatch. Summary is a TPS version of Super Smash Bro's but with much more you have artifacts in the game that will give you extra stats which can be a game changer. One of the things that amazed me was the game modes as there's almost too many game modes and maps for such a new game and they all look just perfect the graphics are smooth and gameplay is so easy to learn so hard to master. On the other hand, the things we heard from most of the players was the matchmaking little unbalanced plus after a little practice and some game time you'll getting used to it and you always know where to aim and where to shot and when. This creates a loop here that many games have, the same players keep playing until they have mastered every skill they need and when new players are joining they beat them like bag of dead fish than that players just stops playing then the game dies slowly. Well let's hope Final Strike won't let that happen and keep the matchmaking system fair and every player will get matched with ones that they can compete against in relationship to their skill or time with the game. There's still so much to say about Rocket Arena to be honest I've not played any better game in the genre last couple years it's a real masterpiece highly recommended for fans of the genre.… Full Review »
