Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 2 review

Mobile Suit Gundam Battle Operation 2 is the free online pick. It is a team battle game set in the Universal Century where up to 12 players fight 6 vs. 6 on land and in space, and you can leave your mobile suit to fight as infantry, planting bombs in enemy bases or calling in support fire. You earn DP in matches to acquire new suits, or buy tokens for the weekly Supply Drops, and then upgrade parts and weapons in the hangar. Bandai Namco lists it on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC. The problem is reception on Steam: only 34% of 6,989 English reviews are positive, and 26% of the 78 English reviews in the last 30 days, the weakest score on this list. It ranks eighth because large-scale PvP is rare in Gundam games, but players should expect paid tokens to speed up progress.
