About Girls' Frontline: Fire Control

Girls' Frontline: Fire Control is a third-person tactical shooter from Darkwinter Software, released in 2026 for Android and iOS. It pits teams of five against each other in fast-paced matches where you control doll-like agents modeled after real-world firearms. The story centers on interdimensional warfare, with characters training in virtual arenas to survive a coming cosmic threat. Combat blends quick reflexes with strategic teamplay, letting you unleash hero skills to secure objectives. It’s a mobile shooter that leans into competitive 5v5 action with a focus on randomized maps and high-stakes team coordination.

Gameplay

Matches start with quick setup: pick a doll with unique fire mechanics and abilities, then jump into third-person combat on procedurally generated maps. You’ll juggle cover-based shooting, timing-based skill casts, and objective control, like capturing data nodes or defending bases. Each doll has a specialty, from sniper snipes to area denial, forcing you to adapt to enemy loadouts. Controls are touch-based but responsive, with a focus on hip-fire accuracy and mobility. Sessions last 10, 15 minutes, ending in clutch victories or crushing losses. The single-player mode offers story-driven training missions, but the heart of the game is the multiplayer grind, where every match tests your aim and teamwork.

What Players Think

Reviews highlight the 35 achievements, including “Pentakill in Mirage” and “Master of 5 Maps.” At $19.99 with microtransactions, 60% say the free-to-play model is fair, though 15% complain about pay-to-win skins.

PlayPile's Take

Fire Control is a mobile shooter for players who thrive in high-skill environments. The price is reasonable, but the real draw is the competitive 5v5 mode, which rewards precision and strategy. If you’re patient enough to master its mechanics, the achievements and ranked ladder add long-term value. However, its aggressive difficulty and reliance on team coordination might frustrate newcomers. Stick with it if you’re chasing ranked glory, but skip if you prefer more forgiving gameplay. The community’s split on fairness, but the core experience is undeniably sharp.
