Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos Launches Mobile Melee

• Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos is a mecha-themed multiplayer brawler, now available on iOS and Android.
• Pilot your walking tank to victory and collect components to unlock new variations.
• Battle across three unique planets in a game that is completely free from pay-to-win mechanics.

As the saying goes, 'We dig giant robots.' There's a reason massive mechs–whether remotely piloted, autonomous, or human-operated–remain so popular. Now, Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos delivers fast-paced 3v3 action where you climb into your personal tank to reduce the enemy to scrap metal.

Developed by Gamedia and available now on iOS and Android, Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos isn't just about taking on opponents in multiplayer battles. You'll also work to unlock new mechs piece by piece as you fight your way across three distinct planets.

Look, I'm a Battletech fan. I can appreciate a sense of realism. But let's be honest, quadrupedal mechs often seem a bit awkward. That's what makes Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos so impressive–it achieves the seemingly impossible by making these lumbering, four-legged machines look seriously cool. With its fast-paced PvP action, it might even win over sceptics like me.

Intense Mecha Combat

All joking and quad-mech slander aside (what's so wrong with two legs, anyway?), Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos is a very intriguing new release. We've seen titles like MechWarrior: Online try to balance realistic multiplayer mech combat for years, with mixed success.

Spider Tanks: Cores of Chaos throws any pretense of realism out the window in favor of fast-paced, heavy-metal action. And for those of us who just want to watch giant robots blast each other to pieces, that feels like the true spirit of the season.
