If you find yourself falling for it as I did then this DLC is absolutely worth a buy. If you haven’t tried the base game out yet it’s on Game Pass and it deserves a try. It’s not transformative, but what it adds is excellent. In Conclusionįor $10 you get a good amount of content that both adds new areas and new mechanics to what is already a great game. The hitches while saving are still present but are far more tolerable, and on either mouse & keyboard or controller the game works well.

Things look and run great, both on PC and console where I checked out the base game again.

Everything felt incredibly well balanced, though I was lucky enough to have a save file ready to go from the developers as I had to review this DLC on Steam (and I reviewed the base game on Series X). The base game is still on Xbox Game Pass, but this DLC is not and it’ll run you a reasonable $10 US at launch.

A real pretty one, with great music, decent voice acting, and a ridiculous amount of content.

For those who don’t know what The Riftbreaker is imagine if Smash TV, a mildly complex tower defense game, and a basic resource simulator all had a baby. This expansion has felt like a great excuse to jump back into a game I played a lot of around launch. Thousands of years ago an unknown alien species was caught up in a cataclysmic world-changing event and you’ll find out their history as you unlock some of their varied and intriguing technology. Metal Terror is accessed through the Jungle biome in the game, a meteor falls and after checking it out you’re able to rift jump to a previously unseen location on the planet Galatea 37. If like me however you found something incredible here then developer Exor Studios has your back. If you haven’t tried The Riftbreaker because its mix of base building, twin-stick shooting, and resource management didn’t appeal to you then this won’t change your mind at all. This is 100% an expansion on top of the game you (might) already know and love. Let’s see if it’s worth your time and money. Metal Terror tells a story with roots thousands of years in the past and introduces new gameplay mechanics, dozens of items, and new enemies to go along with its previously unseen areas.

We reviewed the base game in October of 2021 and absolutely loved it.
