What is Crash Force? Imagine if Rocket League had a baby with Twisted Metal and then fed that baby steroids until it was 18. That is Crash Force; an online multiplayer arena shooter, with RPG elements, where the players are Hovercrafts. Oh, and there are lots (and I do mean lots) of explosions.
Currently Crash Force has 9 different playable characters, with 5 different online game modes (like Team Deathmatch and Point Control), an offline practice mode and 4 different maps. Each Hovercraft has 2 weapons that can shoot and a skillset of 4 different abilities that can be used to gain an advantage in combat. Those weapons and abilities define the “class” of the Hovercraft (i.e. DPS, Tank…). A good team composition and an efficient use of resources is the key to win in Crash Force.
Apart from the intense gameplay, Crash Force offers a huge variety of customization for the Hovercrafts. Each Hovercraft has at least 2 skins that can be equipped or if you prefer you are able to paint each part of each hovercraft one of the 204 colors and 51 lights that the game offers. You can also select your own insignias and customize your Calling Card. As if visual customization was not enough Crash Force offers gameplay customizations as well, with 90 skill points gained through leveling up, expended on the battle skills that you want to increase.
Crash Force is available, as of 5PM (GMT) today, for free on Steam.
