This is a really slick and kinetic sci-fi combat game which features a fantastic versus mode and a surprisingly cool co-operative 'bounty' mode. The versus has your standard deathmatch and team deathmatch but there's also a 'cash grab' game type which my friend and I didn't get to play because... well, we just got too addicted to deathmatch. Cash grab sounds amazing though. We tried the bounty mode and also got addicted to that. In bounty, you do missions to collect money which allows you to unlock new mission types, ships, levels and a mysterious but very expensive item called 'Revenge' for a cool $1,000,000.

User Reviews
Amazing Game! I originally played Astro Duel Deluxe (the first game) on Nintendo Switch and loved it. This sequel is even better!!
