Take customization to the extreme with the Omega Customization System and battle with one-of-a-kind combat units in this all-new third-person shooter mecha game. Not being restricted to bipedal builds, you can freely customize your mechs to include multiple heads, legs, and arms in whatever positions and angles you choose. Depending on the parts you use, the parameters will vary wildly, so you can build mechs with whatever abilities and fighting styles you wish! Arm your custom mech to the teeth with every weapon imaginable and blast your way through oncoming enemies. Experience the heart-pounding mecha action that only your Omega Customized units can provide. Destroy enemy units, collect their parts, and customize your favorite mechs even more. Complete a variety of missions as you battle, customize, and then battle and customize some more! This game supports online multiplayer. Up to four players can cooperate to complete story missions just like in single-player mode. Not only can you experience the rush of tackling missions with friends, but you can show off your favorite mechs you personally customized.

In its current state, I feel like Custom Mech Wars should’ve been priced a bit lower or have the EDF DLC included in its asking price. The missions and enemies don’t get as crazy as that, but for a game focused on customization and mechs like the name suggests, it does the job well. I’ve enjoyed playing it quite a bit on PS5 and Steam Deck. With the latest update, the audio issues are also finally fixed on Steam Deck, and I recommend getting it if you are a fan of Earth Defense Force style gameplay, mechs, and customization. Custom Mech Wars Steam Deck review score: 3.5/5 Double Dragon Advance and Super Double Dragon Steam Deck Review I was initially going to do separate reviews for Arc System Works’ recent releases of Double Dragon Advance and Super Double Dragon on PC and consoles, but having spent a few weeks with both of them, I have similar thoughts so I’m doing a combined review.

I really wanted to love Custom Mech Builder. Earth Defense Force and customizable giant robots is everything I should want. Alas, Custom Mech Builder doesn't have much going for it. If you like creating giant anime robots to smash enemies, there are better choices. If you like over-the-top explosion-fests, there are better options. Pretty much the only thing Custom Mech Builder has going for it is how easy it is to make a bullet train with drill arms, but that amusement quickly wears out its welcome. As a budget $20 title, Custom Mech Wars might be worth the cost for the amusing builder, but mech fans can find better games that cost less.

Overall, Custom Mech Wars is a mediocre mecha game that gets the customization somewhat right but fails on dealing with how the combat should work. While the Earth Defense Force games have their low budget infused charm, they are at least fun to play. Custom Mech Wars sadly lacks this redeeming feature and is just an arduous chore.
