Metal Fatigue, developed by Zono, is a real-time strategy game set in a futuristic sci-fi universe where massive customizable mechs dominate the battlefield. The game introduces a unique three-tiered battlefield system, allowing players to fight on orbital platforms, planetary surfaces, and underground levels simultaneously. Players command one of three rival factions competing for control of valuable resources and advanced alien technology. The core gameplay revolves around constructing bases, gathering resources, researching upgrades, and assembling giant “Combots” from interchangeable parts.
Players can salvage enemy mech components during combat, enabling strategic customization and experimentation with different arm, leg, and weapon combinations. Tactical depth is enhanced by terrain advantages, strategic positioning, and simultaneous multi-level combat operations. The single-player campaign features story-driven missions, while skirmish and multiplayer modes provide competitive replayability.
The game’s detailed 3D graphics and mechanical unit designs emphasize the scale and power of the massive robots. Strategic planning, resource management, and battlefield awareness are crucial to victory. With its innovative multi-level combat system and deep mech customization, Metal Fatigue stands out as a distinctive entry in the real-time strategy genre, offering both complexity and creative freedom for strategy enthusiasts.
