No Gears, No Glory As Override: Mech City Brawl Is Announced

Override

A new brawling title, Override: Mech City Brawl, is coming to us all and Override will let us has out our differences with giant robots in the city

Add one more game to the list of games you never knew you wanted as Override: Mech City Brawl has been given the announcement treatment for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Why is it one that you never knew you wanted? Well this is The Balance Inc's next title that will place us all into a 3D mech-based brawler that spans the globe with the use of real-world locations and not just made up ones. All of which will be destructible in Override, but more like a stylized version of the city so do not get those hopes up too much. More so as this is also all about the Mechs fighting in the world and not just stomping out cities. All in time for a nice little December 4th release date for those who want to have a Merry Christmas.

In addition to the Mech brawling, Override: Mech City Brawl will also house a few co-op and multiplayer options for those who do not want to just go one on one all the time. There will be a split-screen option for two to four players to play on the couch together. There will also be a co-op option for all four players to team up in one super-Mech and control various parts in the match. It is kind of cool looking concept but as the announcement video for Override does not show it in practice, it is still a weird variable to account for. Have a look at what is out there for yourself and then see if my assumption was correct from the start.
