About

BattleZone throws you into the cockpit of agile hover tanks for high-speed combat on futuristic battlefields. Maneuver through destructible environments while customizing your vehicle with a range of weapons and upgrades. The single-player campaign offers a straightforward learning curve with tournament-style progression to earn new gear. Online four-player WiFi matches let you battle friends or strangers in real time. Six game modes including Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch keep matches fresh and fast. The WiFi multiplayer adds immediate replay value while unlockable weapons and vehicles reward skill and persistence. Though nearly two decades old the game’s tight controls and explosive action still hold up as a strong entry in the portable shooter category. The single-player mode serves as a good training ground before jumping into chaotic multiplayer skirmishes.
