M.A.R.S.

About

M.A.R.S. is a third-person shooter with a quirky edge that splits its focus between chaotic multiplayer battles and a large sci-fi conflict. Play as soldiers in fast-paced gunfights or pilot towering mechas to smash through environments. Custom builds let you tweak weapons and abilities for different modes like Headhunter, a zany variant where knocking opponents off maps earns points. The story follows a fractured world at war between human factions and rogue insectoid robots, though the real draw is the variety of playstyles. The game stands out for blending co-op teamwork with direct PvP elements, creating unpredictable matches. While the 2021 release date means it’s already built a niche following, its mix of humor and heavy metal mecha action keeps players coming back. With over 100 hours of content reported by some, M.A.R.S. offers depth for those willing to dig past its occasionally cluttered interface.

Storyline

In order to combat UNITA's biochemical modification of humans, the League of Nations secretly developed the NRC: Insectoid Robots with frightening intelligence and a brimming consciousness, which sooner than not went rogue and became its own faction in this now-three-way war. The human world is now at stake, and a battle for survival and supremacy is being waged.
